Kinkaid is mostly technique. You would be amazed how quickly he can create his seemingly detailed paintings. Some, like Bob Ross will do it on camera, finishing a "detailed" painting in 1/2 hour. Kinkaid can do the same, although he will not do it on camera. That definitely is a talent. But one might also say it's a triumph of technique over art.

Problem is, the "technique" is mush and the "detail" is repetitive. And his much-vaunted light is just goofy.
It really is the equivalent of those little kids or puppies with big eyes on black velvet.
