To induce vomiting.
For the only halfway-decent painting of his that I ever saw he was cribbing off one of the Hudson River School painters.
His assembly-line operation had him adding a few daubs of paint to these manufactured copies so they could be called “original” works.
Not that that makes him any worse than Andy Warhol, but still...
trying to remember the headlines from way, way back, when that guy tried to bomb Times Square
trying to remember if the headlines read
“Muslim bombing suspect so-and-so...”
Cue arrest with the background of deer and light snow on an 1800s house on a river bank.
You know what they say about doing business with someone who uses his religious piety as a selling point...
Hold onto your wallet.
He reportedly told the officers that he had consumed a great deal of water before driving, but God must have turned it into wine once it hit his bloodstream...
CAINO?
From Wiki:
“...The Los Angeles Times has reported that some of Kinkade’s former colleagues, employees, and even collectors of his work say that he has a long history of cursing and heckling other artists and performers. The Times further reported that he openly groped a woman’s breasts at a South Bend, Indiana, sales event, and mentioned his proclivity for ritual territory marking through urination, once relieving himself on a Winnie the Pooh figure at a Disney site while saying “This ones for you, Walt.”[26][27] Kinkade has denied some of the allegations, and accepted and apologized for others.[27]
In 2006 John Dandois, Media Arts Group executive, recounted a story that on one occasion (”about six years ago”) Kinkade became drunk at a Siegfried & Roy magic show in Las Vegas and began shouting “Codpiece! Codpiece!” at the performers. Eventually he was calmed by his mother.[26] Dandois also said of Kinkade, “Thom would be fine, he would be drinking, and then all of a sudden, you couldn’t tell where the boundary was, and then he became very incoherent, and he would start cussing and doing a lot of weird stuff.”[26] On 11 June 2010, Kinkade was arrested in Carmel, CA on suspicion of driving while under the influence of alcohol. [28]”
Wow!
Is he the first artist to get arrested for DUI?
The CHP is out for blood these days. No break for anyone, and lots of questionable citations.

When Graham licked Clintons’ axx, I thought, ‘’well I was right about him all along.’’
Hey media....WE'RE HUMAN WITH HUMAN FAULTS.....
He should have been arrested years ago—for his paintings.
I read recently that one in ten American homes has at least one of his paintings on the wall.
Its the paint. The painters need to drink to keep the buzz going.
Everybody can't paint like Johannes Vermeer, and they shouldn't. He should just enjoy his work and be glad others do also. And maybe go to rehab.
I am not a fan of his work, but people buy it because they like it. If people want to spend money for it, that’s their business.
bttt
I wouldn’t characterize Thomas Kinkade as a “Christian” artist, but rather a “Horrible” one.
Kitsch ain’t got nothin’ on Thomas.
