Thomas Kinkade -
Painter of Light
Thomas Kinkade is widely regarded as one
of the foremost living painters of light. He uses techniques of the late
nineteenth century American painters, known as Luminists. His paintings radiate
light, inviting viewers to bask in the nostalgia of earlier, less stressful
times. Thom’s work emphasizes cozy cottages, country churchyards, cityscapes,
and Western landscapes. Each setting is accompanied by that special “Kinkade
Glow”, which Thom attributes to “soft edges, a warm palette and an overall
sense of light”. Kinkade pays loving tribute to his family by hiding their name
or initials in his paintings? See if you can find initials his puzzle images.
For those asking about Kinkade watch for 15 new images over the next couple of
weeks.
Johannes (Jan) van Haasteren was born in
1936 in a small town near Rotterdam, Holland. As soon as Jan began to hold a
pencil, he became hooked on drawing. He attended the Academy of Arts in
Rotterdam for drawing and the Academy of Arts to study publicity and advertising.
When he was asked to co-produce a comic strip, his world of comic strip drawing
began. In the 1980???s, along
with his career in poster illustration, Jan began illustrating images for the
Dutch toy company, Jumbo, which continues to this day. Still going strong at
age 73, Jan is in his attic studio daily, drawing the puzzle images which we
proudly produce.
