Simpler Times Hardcover – CLV, June 1, 1996

There aren’t words to express how grateful I am to have received this in the mail today. It was a difficult day and I had some health issues. I decided to end the night on a positive note and made some banana bread with my last two over ripe bananas. My husband came home and handed me the package with this book inside and we both sat down to eat banana bread and drink some tea. All the while I started to read the simple kind and luminous words of Thomas Kinkade’s life philosophy. I was moved to tears by this sublime experience. I absolutely love every single painting in this book paired with the cozy and reflective literature of Thomas. With only $10 you can receive an enormous amount of value in your life. Buy this book.

This was just another book showing Thomas Kinkades beautiful paintings and I collect most of anything dealing wth his works.For the price and what it contained well worth what I paid 4 !

.One of the best modern day painters. I enjoy his work every day.

Thomas Kinkade is one amazing and renowned artist. In this book are his best paintings and artwork brought together, accompanied by heartfelt quotes and scriptures. This book is a true classic.

so nice

We got this for my wife's collection of inspirational pictures. She is using it to enhance her painting craft.

I loved his work so much that my kids took his art classes and we meet him in Kansas once. he was so kind. They have a TK store in Branson and this is so beautiful. if you can’t afford his worth this gives you a great example of his pieces.

I first saw Tomas Kinkades work at a gallery in Port Jefferson Long Island. They were set in special rooms with typical individual lights for each piece. There were dimmer switches in the room that we were able to control the lighting, enhancing the effects. The paintings actually came alive with light as I dimmed the house lights. I'm not in the position to afford his work but with this book I'm at least able to enjoy the experience. The book is so good you can see the brush strokes and even the bumps in the canvas It's not as good as the real thing although it dose tease your senses. So sit back. Put on some soothing music and live the experience.
