WINDERMERE RANCH
MEET THE ARTIST
Thomas Kinkade
Thomas Kinkade, the Painter of Light™, emphasized simple pleasures and inspirational messages through his art – and the branded products created from that art. From textiles, to collectibles, to music and books, Thom gave credit to a higher power for both the ability and the inspiration to create his paintings. His goal as an artist was to touch people of all faiths, to bring peace and joy into their lives through the images he had created. Thom’s dearest wish had always been that his artwork would be a messenger of hope and inspiration to others – a message to slow down, appreciate the little details in life, and to look for beauty in the world around us. As millions of collectors around the world sit back and enjoy his artwork in their homes, there is no doubt that Thomas Kinkade had indeed achieved his goal of Sharing the Light™.

The Kinkade family has established Windermere Ranch, in the foothills of northern California, as our private retreat. Of course, we sometimes open up the ranch to entertain dealers and friends, but it remains our special preserve - a place where we can feel completely together.
Recently, my oldest daughter, Merritt, and I laid symbolic claim on the land by actually climbing to the top of the mountain I portray in Windermere Ranch, Sunset, which we call Rainbow Ridge. The round trip took us 3 hours of strenuous effort, but our exhaustion was matched by our pride.
The stark, wind-carved mountains are especially dramatic in the vivid light of sunset. I painted Windermere Ranch, Sunset in a near frenzy of excitement, sensing that the act of painting completed my conquest.
I'm offering this striking, very personal vista in an extremely limited edition to those who share my love of country living.
