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:
A small village nestled in a bucolic cove serves as haven to all who are weathering a storm. It may be rough seas that are battering a vessel filled with maritime wayfarers or it may be the turmoil of life that is working to break the individual spirit, but in either case this homey harbor offers peace and the refuge needed to rediscover direction.
