Thomas Kinkade died on Good Friday, April 6, 2012. I was sad, like I was with Steve Jobs. I will miss the creative genius and what else they could have shared with the world. I am a Kinkade fan and enjoy 2 of his paintings in my home. They hold different meanings to everybody, but ‘A Peaceful Retreat’ reminds me of my dad, who passed in 2003. I got ‘Perseverance’ after I lost my home and all my possessions in a fire. It seemed an appropriate reminder. Well, April happens to be child abuse prevention and awareness month and I have been focused on a fundraiser for Childhelp. For this reason , we decided to sell our Kinkade paintings on eBay and donate a portion of the proceeds to Childhelp. If you know a Kinkade fan, I have a great cause....
