❤...
I went to the same art school Thomas Kinkade did, and he even came to speak at my school a handful of times while I was there.
Even back then I hated his work so much I knew I would never like the man, so I never went to his talks and tried my best to avoid even looking at his works.
I am so glad to hear that Robert Evans decided to cover Thomas Kinkade on Behind The Bastards. Fuck Thomas Kinkade.
Thank all that is good he's dead. Yet another grave to add to the bucket lists of graves to defile.
As far as I can tell, he's just some dude who could paint idyllic cottages. He managed to make millions from doing typical shady businessman shit, selling franchise deals to as many people as possible so they could resell prints of his paintings.
Also some sexual assault and substance abuse stuff.
"In 2006, John Dandois, Media Arts Group executive, recounted a story that on one occasion six years previously, Kinkade became drunk at a Siegfried & Roy magic show in Las Vegas and began shouting "Codpiece! Codpiece!" at the performers. Eventually he was calmed by his mother."
