Re: There is a light that never goes out (?)
apparently he himself was a limited edition...
i used to work in a toy shop that had half an aisle of his jigsaw puzzles, what an eyesore.
i can only imagine what unspeakable thing lurches forward to take his place in the lowest common denominator 'art' market...

Re: There is a light that never goes out (?)
I didn't want to make light of his passing, but from the first time I ever saw his work until a store opened in the local mall I couldn't get past it. Ugh and I just made an unintended bad pun.

Re: There is a light that never goes out (?)
great writeup over at dangerous minds: http://www.dangerousminds.net/comments/low_rent_rembrandt_thomas_kinkade_r.i.p"The Times further reported that he openly groped a woman’s breasts at a South Bend, Indiana sales event, and mentioned his proclivity for ritual territory marking through urination, once relieving himself on a Winnie the Pooh figure at the Disneyland Hotel..."

I read on Yahoo, people have been buying up everything Kinkade because now "it's going to go up in value"
