There were serious artistic problems with all those lighted cabins in the woods paintings he did.
    And of course the Thomas Kinkade business scams were another issue.
    oh yeah, I remember that because their was a local store that invested in being in a gallery. And there was the mass production of work on canvas like a factory. He had some serious personal issues too.

    Yes, alcoholism being one of them. He also was pushing his Christianity in a seedy way. He did have talent, but he ending up painting just what he thought would sell. As an artist, you can balance what you paint between what you want to and what you can sell. But when it is only about what will appeal to the most people, the art suffers.
    He was art school friends with James Gurney of Dinotopia fame. They did a book about sketching together early on. James went on to a very successful illustration career and is a wonderful outdoor painter. (I've painted with him a few times and he is a great guy). http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/

    Haha, like this:

    There's a place in France
    Where the ladies wear no pants
    But the men don't care
    'cause they don't wear underwear
