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:
At once majestic, comfortable yet human in scale, Lakeside Manor, first in my new series, nestles along the shore of a cobalt blue lake. The gardens are lavish with flowers; radiant sunsets last for hours. This grand mansion is complete with cozy nooks where you might comfortably settle in for a warming cup of tea. A weathered old stone bridge invites visitors to stroll the verdant grounds, while the brook at the left provides a tranquil background murmur sure to make the spirit soar.
