I cannot believe my blog just posted an advertisement through the Picasso artwork application for Thomas Kinkade's work online at his website. Makes me ill to think I have an association with that artist in anyway. I do not believe him to be the "painter of light" nor the highly acclaimed painter so many naive people have been wrongly led to consider. Him, his cutesy artwork, his lifestyle, art management operations, art morals/values, mass production, etc. just plain make me mad.
