The one thing I always noted about his paintings was how much I wanted to live in the places he painted.

RIP Mr. Kinkade

Did they create a village in Vallejo that was patterned after his paintings?

Actually I live in a place like that in Oregon - extremely charming.

Ditto
Living in one of those paintings would be wonderful.

If things had turned out differently, you might have had the chance. I worked as a surveyor on a development on Lake Couer d’Alene where each lot and home was to be made to look like a Kinkade painting. But, the developers ran out of money and ended up stiffing a lot of people, us included...

Me too, I just love the colors and they way it seemed he was inviting you to a wonderful home.

God Bless his soul and keep his family.
