I like the fact that he has some personality rather than obsess on talking about theory of art and rules of art. His seriousness is through his paintings as in his passion to paint and to warm peoples hearts. A lot people appreciate his work. The negative people talking shit through their keyboard couldn't possibly paint this. And if you can, then post your paintings on here, plus sell them.
Maybe its just me, I do some amazing stuff and i understand hoe ego affects the next level of work, um! I simply think my motivations are different. I just like to make people happy through a piece i have done,lol. Its funny but i have heard this said so many times
Art is imagination on canvas. Thomas paints the things he truly loves and so do I. The quality of his paintings far surpasses mine by miles, however, I have only painted 13 oil paintings. We like the same things.Check out my video. His lines are soft and mine are harsh. His paintings dark and pop out with light, mine are light and pop out with color. Art is an expression of what we love but each has their own way of expressing it just like music. His personallity fits his wonderful paintings!
@apietikainen oh blah blah blah art isnt deep its some person who can draw good or somthin cool like that i hate it when people make art all drama like. and there all tasteful and sht and its anoying
So what exactly is your definition of art? It seems like in this 21st century so many devalue what is beautiful and loves what is gory or that can't be represented. Kinkade has a good sense of lighting, composition, balance, theme, contrast, mood, unity, and depth. It takes ART EDUCATION to learn all that.
@NJTotire I agree with everything except that it takes an Art Education to do that level of work, I disagree 100%, I hated every single art class for that exact reason, Yes i was always the top in my class, The reason is i didnt let any Teacher ever tell me how to think!!! Outside of tricks to achieve different affects, It had a negitive value, At least to me.
@Sklurch How is he white trash and a hack? Explain please. Is it because he's well spoken, polite, a family man, interesting, able to create things that make others feel some happiness and nostalgia, or because he knows how to market himself in a positive way and has become successful?
@HonorahWalshe Just google search Thomas Kinkade public urination, or learn more about his recent DUI. He doesn't create anything, he vomits forth kitsch in the guise of Christian values to exploit a target demographic. Norman Rockwell illustrated those values you listed, and was a good enough man to re-examine his own work and evolve as an artist; he's the one whose work ought to be defended, not this literal con man, Thom.
This guy makes want to have a drink, wops!

his artistry and creativity is completely devoted to salesmanship. His self promotion almost reminds me of damien hirst.

Kinkade is not an artist. He just paints pretty pictures. That's it. There is nothing else to it. Art goes a bit deeper than that.

@NJTotire ...but it takes a REAL artist to forget it all to make an original work of expression. Kinkade never learned that.
