This is a simple demonstration of the Thomas Kinkade light dimming effect that can be seen in person at any local Thomas Kinkade Gallery. The effect, which is a trademark of almost all Thomas Kinkade paintings occurs when you slowly bring down the light illuminating the painting. The effect really feels as if the sun is setting inside of the painting, it's amazing! The sky begins to illuminate, sun patches on the ground really stand out and the windows of cottages seem glow brilliantly as if somebody’s at home. Is it an optical illusion or magic? Visit your local Thomas Kinkade Gallery and let us know what you think.
About the Image:
Life is quietly enchanting in this romantic island haven where the modern world seems a million miles away. Autumn on Mackinac Island takes us to this nostalgic Victorian village, where carriages clatter down the lane and bicycles weave languidly to and fro. Nan’s Fudge Shop (a tribute to my wife’s famous fudge recipe) invites us to sample the island’s chief product, while the famous Grand Hotel peeks from behind the autumn trees. At the right, the steeple of the famous Little Stone Church rises above the foliage.
