Sizes: 12 x 18 - From $750, 18 x 27 - From $995, 24 x 36- From $1,680, 28 x 42- $2,250 Like most children of my era I was intrigued by The Wizard of Oz TM during its annual presentation on our TV screen. This adventure provided the ultimate daydream for a young artist whose imagination yearned to “follow the Yellow Brick Road”. To recreate my passion for Oz in visual form, I utilized my imagination to journey beyond what had been created for the original movie. As is the case with my Disney paintings, each Oz painting will be an attempt to capture the essence of the entire movie in a single emotionally charged image. In the first Oz painting we see Dorothy and friends as they view the fabled Emerald City for the first time. The familiar cast of characters is here – Dorothy, Cowardly Lion, Tin Man, Scarecrow -- as well as the Wicked Witch of the West, scary Winged Monkeys, and of course the Munchkins. We can even see Glinda the Good Witch floating in her transparent sphere of light, as though to bless the journey of the travelers. I envision this painting as the first piece in what I will refer to as the “Oz Octet”, a collection of eight epic paintings intended to celebrate great moments from this classic film. The eight paintings in this collection will present a monumental challenge to my abilities as a story teller and picture maker. Yet like my Disney collection, I expect this collection to flourish as collectors discover that each painting builds upon the next. Dorothy Discovers the Emerald City is a panorama of the great places from the film. Though while watching the movie none of us can be entirely sure where the Wicked Witch’s Castle is located in relation to the Emerald City, I have placed it distinctly in the foreground suggesting a barren land that must be traversed to encounter the delights beyond. Like The Wizard of OzTM film, my painting presents the raw emotions of myth and daydream as they collide with wondrous imagination. For those collectors who are ready to engage my Oz collection, rest assured that Dorothy Discovers the Emerald City is the starting point of an epic adventure in a land “over the rainbow”.

Introducing Thomas Kinkade's painting - "The Cross"! About "The Cross" from "Thomas Kinkade: I’ve been secretly working on a project for the Billy Graham Library for the last few months. On April 20th, we’ll be attending the re-opening of this amazing library in Charlotte, North Carolina so that I can unveil the this amazing 32-foot mural of The Cross. I’m looking forward to meeting several long-term members of the Billy Graham team who are anticipated to be on hand for this big day, including Cliff Barrows, George Beverly Shea, Franklin Graham and Dr. Billy Graham himself. I couldn’t be more thrilled painting this mural, to be placed in such a prominent position as part of the whole Billy Graham experience. I am hoping that this image will provide the 200,000+ people who visit the library annually with a memorable impression they will remember for many years to come. — Thomas Kinkade

Bambi's First Year
Release Date – March, 2010

I believe “Bambi’s First Year” is the most breathtaking subject in my Disney Dreams Collection to date. I attempted to capture the sublime beauty of the forest, combined with the wonderful charm of the forest animals and their playful everyday activities. I hope as you look at Bambi cresting the ridge of his domain, you too will feel empowered to live your best life and to count on a season of new beginnings, even when the challenges of life confront you. Truly for Bambi, and for us, life goes on. — Thomas Kinkade

Nature's Paradise
Release Date – January, 2010

Great thinkers of the past have described God’s creation as an earthly paradise – and nature herself as a reflection of God’s grace and love. I suppose such romantic notions have always inspired me, and certainly have been a foundational part of my beliefs as an artist. In my newest work, I attempt to conceive of nature as existing in complete harmony in all its elements. We see rolling mountains that gather rain to fill streams that cascade into valleys forming lakes and ponds. We see clouds gathering overhead and a rainbow forming in the sky suggesting the passing moisture of distant rainfall. The skies are filled with migrating birds and wildlife is abundant. Everywhere we look, life is brimming forth with greater blessings. In the midst of this perfect setting, I conceived of a perfect retreat: a woodsman‘s cabin, with lights glowing to welcome us home after a day spent fishing on the lake or exploring the woods’ trails. This is the third painting in the series that began with Mountain Retreat, and as the last piece in the series I wanted to pull out all the stops and let the detail be even more abundant than ever. As you explore this painting, may you discover that Nature’s Paradise is waiting to welcome you in. — Thomas Kinkade

"Graceland® Christmas"

Click for YouTube video for this painting.

When as a young man I first explored Elvis Presley’s fabled estate, I was surprised to discover that Graceland is at once grand and surprisingly intimate. Elvis seemed to be an ordinary person with the same hopes and aspirations of anyone else. That is the spirit of Graceland Christmas, my second portrayal of the famous Graceland mansion. Here we see Elvis gathering presents in his role as family Santa. As he unloads gifts from the famous pink Cadillac, we are captivated by the twinkling tree lights that suggest the magic of the season. Colorful Christmas trees line the drive and the amber sunset suggests a frosty evening ahead. The glow from the porch and windows reminds us that all families, even that of the King of Rock’n Roll, will join joyously tonight to celebrate the season. I hope Graceland Christmas will be part of your Christmas celebration for many years to come. — Thomas Kinkade

"Graceland® 50th Anniversary"

Click for YouTube video for this painting.

Fifty years ago, the King of Rock ‘n Roll bought the palace that became, for him, a sanctuary from the demands of a very public life, and for devotees of American pop culture, a Mecca that grows only more famous with the passage of time. Graceland® is one of the most visited homes in America, where legions of fans come to embrace the memories and the music of the undying rock legend, Elvis Presley®. I grew up with Elvis'® great songs and movies; my older sister was a huge fan who played his records until she wore them out. I’ve grown to appreciate the energy and high spirits the King contributed to what has become classic American culture. So, naturally, I was delighted when I got the opportunity to paint the official 50th Anniversary portrait of Graceland. I set up my easel at Graceland on a crisp autumn morning when the stately home was particularly cozy and welcoming. I was inspired to paint it with smoke curling from the chimney and a golden light blazing in every window. I finished my sketchy plein-air study in just a few hours, and then took Graceland, 50th Anniversary to my studio where I created an image that includes such finishing touches as a likeness of the King and one of his famous cars. The finished canvas is being offered as a Limited Edition release to honor the 50th Anniversary of Graceland — a home like no other. — Thomas Kinkade We have a limited number of special hand-signed and hand-remarqued Graceland pieces available. This extremely rare "Guitar" remarque has never been done before and is unique to the Light & Legend Event held on March 23 & 24, 2007 in Memphis. Call the gallery at 901-257-1212 for Pricing & Availability. Elvis®, Elvis Presley® and Graceland® are registered trademarks of Elvis Presley Enterprises, Inc.
