Handmade oil paintings reproductions are indeed the unique gifts

In one's whole life, we’ll experience many important festivals, such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, New Year, birthday, wedding anniversary, etc. However in fact, these important time is just showing love & care and also the gift time, because gifts are the best way to show someone that you cherish the person. Then how to choose the both correct and unique gifts?

Take Christmas for example, kids may especially get super excited as they anticipate what kind of gifts they are going to unwrap from the colorful packages stored under the Christmas tree. But for the adults, most of time it becomes difficult to choose the right gift, because we do not have the idea what kind of gift is going to make them happy. Sometimes while we are shopping for gifts we are usually flooded with so many choices that we hardly know which one to pick up. But more often than not we end up buying cliched gifts for our loved families and friends.

So, what kind of gifts are the unique ones? I have heard many people say that handmade gifts are better, they said that while buying toys try out different kinds of toys, handmade toys are good ideas; if you have a friend who loves jewelry, gift her handmade jewelry pieces, she would love trying these on; and there is also a kind of way to correlate unique gift giving with art, for this reason, they said: “we have lately witnessed several initiatives of artists who offer their experience and knowledge in the service of creating customized sublime works of art. This is even more important as we speak of professional painters who can work in any medium and size for creating great hand-made portrait paintings for us to offer as unique gifts. ” In summary, handmade unique gifts are indeed the better choices.

Details of the painting "Pinocchio Wishes Upon a Star by Thomas Kinkade"

Pinocchio Wishes Upon a Star is the second release in Thomas Kinkade Disney Dreams Collection. When we look at the painting carefully, we can see that Thomas has placed a total of 25 N's in it as tribute to his love for his wife Nanette, as well as in celebration for his 25 years as a published artist, and also placed the letter "W" in it as tribute to his daughter, Winsor. We all know, these magics in the painting that only a few artists in the world can capture. However, thomas kinkade - such a talent & marvelous beloved painter, gone so soon, it’s really a shame.

I’ve been wondering if everyone has noticed a lot of details in the painting? I would like to share them with members, hope everyone enjoy them just like me.
 
 
 
 
 
 
More descriptions of the painting:
Comprised of Thomas Kinkade's most sought after images, the Classics Collection is carefully reproduced on cotton fibre canvas using the methods and materials used by the artist on his original paintings. Elegantly framed with museum quality materials to coordinate with the most popular frame styles in the Thomas Kinkade Limited Edition canvas collection, each piece in the Classics Collection comes complete with a Certificate of Authenticity.

My Disney Dreams Collection celebrates great moments from Walt Disney Films. I call these paintings "narrative panoramas" because each painting tells the entire story of the film in one image.

For my painting Pinocchio Wishes Upon A Star we see Pinocchio upon a hillside overlooking the setting of his adventures. We see Honest John and Geppetto's workshop where Pinocchio was formed. On the right we see Pleasure Island and Monstro the whale preparing to engulf Geppetto's sailing vessel. Butterflies and sparkles lend magical accents as the Blue Fairy and Jiminy Cricket look on.

My prayer is that my Disney Dreams Collection will make dreams come true for all who see these enchanted paintings.

A message about Thomas Kinkade paintings

I've seen a message recently about Thomas Kinkade paintings: “I really hope that Thomas Kinkade will create a Lady and the Tramp painting! He would be able to capture the light of that movie from the famous spaghetti scene to the little snow covered houses at the beginning of the movie and the soft warm light of Jim Dear and Darling's home!” When I saw this comment, I thought it was a so good idea, we know that may be only the great "painter of light" - Thomas Kinkade could capture the light wonderfully.

However, he passed away, it happened so suddenly. I believe that there would be too many people were shocked and hurt when they heard the news, we lost a great artist and even lost a best friend.

His works are so marvelous and inspiring, every time I felt so warm and joyful when I saw his works, I knew there must be a lot of people have the same feelings as me. Our amazing & remarkable painter of light who added so much light to all our lives by the stroke of a brush, we are very thankful for all of his beautiful creations, I firmly believed that most of his paintings will be cherished greatly and he will be missed forever.

Bambi's First Year from 2010 by Thomas Kinkade

These years, Thomas Kinkade paintings are almost the most popular, However, maybe since his artworks are relatively more expensive, more and more oil paintings reproductions rise.

In the Thomas Kinkade Disney collection, "Bambi's First Year" maybe is the most breathtaking subject. For this picture, Thomas Kinkade said a lot.

 "I hope as you look at Bambi cresting the ridge of his domain, you too will feel empowered to live your best life and to count on a season of new beginnings, even when the challenges of life confront you."
                    -- Thomas Kinkade
                                                         
If you look closely, Bambi's self-sacrificing mother can be seen, as a half hidden image upon the distant mountain. Truly, a mother's love, like the spirit of the mighty mountains, will guide a son forever. The central theme of Bambi is the cycle of the seasons and the ongoing flow of life. Truly, water flows through the world like life itself - a timeless reminder that despite the passing seasons, nature thrives and a new generation is born. From the masterpiece Bambi's First Year from 2010 by Thomas Kinkade.

Snow White Discovers the Cottage from 2008 by Thomas Kinkade

Thomas Kinkade Disney theme is the center arounded of some of his greatest paintings. Thomas Kinkade's Snow White Discovers the Cottage was his first Disney Dreams release, it has been described as his best cottage piece ever. Fans marvel at the amazing lighting effects which take place when you dim the lights on the piece. If you look carefully, you'll actually see some of the shadowed effects of light beaming in across the forest. There are 7 hidden Mickey Mouse ears representing the 7 dwarfs and don't forget about the castle in the background.


"My goal in this image is to Snow White Discovers the Cottage by Thomas Kinkade imaginatively expand upon what is actually depicted in the feature itself. I have tried to step into the world created by the film and "wander around" in my imagination, searching for new vistas. For the Snow White image I went back to the early design work for the film and discovered many great
concept sketches of the cottage and the surrounding landscape that are largely unknown today - one of which I've shown here. "
