+++++ What Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
" Seaside Village began as my largest plein air painting. I came to feel that I was
in wonderful harmony with the sea and sun and sand as I painted. I did all I could on
location, then took the canvas back to my studio to add imaginative touches.
My work on the painting gave me a renewed appreciation for the lovely simplicity of
life lived in harmony with the rhythms of the sea. Imagine living, talking, and working
in a place where the ebb and flow of waves and tides beats like a metronome in the
background, setting a slow, steady pace. That’s why I’ll be visiting more seaside
villages as we savor the simple pleasures of this natural way of life."
