test
Thomas Kinkade, author of Simpler Times, is in his 16th year as a published artist. A devout Christian and accomplished modern- day impressionist, Kinkade has received numerous national awards for his works. Most recently he has received Lithograph of the Year Award for the eighth year in a row, Graphic Artist of the Year for the fifth year in a row, and Artist of the Year for the second time from the National Association of Limited Edition Dealers. Thomas, his wife, Nanette, and their four daughters live in Northern California.
On The Blessings of Summer, Kinkade says “When I was a lad, we had our choice of Arcadian swimming holes, deep and safe, framed by old trees and big diving rocks. It was heavenly. ‘The Blessings of Summer’, third in my ‘Blessings of the Seasons’ collection, is my tribute to those long ago summer days.”
