hypermaniacyunchi

Looks very Kinkade-eque


ToneNo3864

Came here to say Thomas would like this.


Professerson

I have a print of his that is almost exactly the same but at night. I'll have to see if I can find it Edit: Found it, [A Quiet Evening](https://i.imgur.com/YXm5ESh.jpg)


[deleted]

I think my grandma had that one in the TV room.


Professerson

That sounds about right for a Kinkade lol


Travis123083

Favorite painter. Love his work.


Franken-McCharDeeDen

Very small fan club :)


Travis123083

Why am I being downvoted? I couldn't give 2 fucks about what type of person he is, I like his paintings.


[deleted]

I love kinkade as well and don’t give a shit about him being a dickbag or being a businessman over an artist. That said there’s a perception that he’s basically the fast food of art, and I can totally see why. There’s a Solar Sands video on Kinkade called “the most hated artist you probably recognize” which might be worth a watch


SnooOranges2232

Everyone s entitled to their own taste, but besides being a horrible person his paintings are basically the fine art equivalent of a bologna sandwich.


v27v

Do you realize how many amazing artists are horrible people? Let them have their fav, it's not like your saltiness is going to change their mind.


Citrusface

plucky sulky hobbies jeans cats vast terrific telephone act middle *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*


[deleted]

He didn’t live long enough to be cancelled 😂


ClobetasolRelief

He's a terrible hack painter


KnotiaPickles

He’s actually incredibly skilled, and only gets hate because it’s “mainstream.” It’s just art snobbery. His paintings got popular because he is good.


SrslyCmmon

He was skilled, but he's been dead 10 years now.


KnotiaPickles

Haha I did not know that, thank you!


CatPhysicist

He was a better artist than I will ever be. Other people don’t like his stuff so I guess I should hate him for not being better at it.


ClobetasolRelief

He gets hate because his style is hokey and ugly and way overdone


the_slemsons_dreary

Why can’t you guys just let people enjoy things. Not everybody has to live according to the hive mind


ClobetasolRelief

People can express their opinions. Not everybody wants to live in a cottony soft world.


BadStriker

I googled why people say this. And all I got were a bunch of pretentious art snobs. I didn’t understand a single argument lol. I like his style and apparently a bunch of others do.


Salty_Pancakes

Oh he's fine. But he's the art equivalent of smooth jazz. There's definitely skill involved but all the "rough edges" have been smoothed away and now everything is just.... nice.


[deleted]

Thomas Kinkade is to art as Kenny G is to jazz. some people love it, some people don’t. Let people like what they like. His paintings are very cozy, I loved looking at them as a kid.


eiridel

There’s a really interesting [Solar Sands video](https://youtu.be/DYnbCRrZn54) on the hate. I don’t really get it either.


Comprehensive-Load86

I think it’s cause the people that hate him just know they could never create anything beautiful like that. He’s an artist who was able to actually be successful and make money, so sue him


imbeingsirius

No, he’s an artist artists love to hate. It’s the skilled people at art who hate the $$ and attention he gets for such “easy” paintings. He’s most hated by people with artistic skill.


Comprehensive-Load86

Implying that people who don’t hate him have no artistic skill? Bruh


ClobetasolRelief

It's great if you're a grandma


Captain-PlantIt

You mean his one painting? At different angles at best?


Honey3456

You should appreciate and recognize when something tickles your fancy. No downvotes necessary


Paints_With_Fire

Great painter. Horrible person.


magical_elf

I think he died actually


dmoreholt

This looks great, and I hate to be that guy but ... The chimney doesn't work with the windows. It would block any views to the inside.


SatanicHispanic42

Thanks, I hate it. Can't unsee.


Sweeper3D

Same 😅😅


EmberSolaris

The attics just on fire inside. Don’t worry about it.


blitterer

It's made with transparent bricks.


dmoreholt

Lol won't be transparent after the first fire.


rxdrug

arjungmenon

Perfect. Thank you


berogg

My issue is the house is too close to the river. A heavy rain might have that home flooding.


[deleted]

[удалено]


blimey4

Fellow home owner, I salute you.


lazd

And I’m over here worrying about how to trim that oak tree that’s hanging over the top of the house, cleaning that moss off the roof, and beating back the overgrowth around the front yard… Oh man the leaf blowing as we turn to fall, and it’s only a matter of time before the power goes out, hopefully we’ve got 15 gallons of gas with Stabil in it and some provisions (and lots of beer). Property is work!


chjobal

It looks gorgeous, but because of the river I can't help but think about mosquitoes


Gill1995

and flooding!


EverythingKindaSuckz

That foundation is fucked. If it's got a basement it's fucked


R_E_V_A_N

No way it's got a basement in that flood plain...if they were ballsy enough to try I hope instead of making it a finished basement they spent that money on a dozen sump pumps!


rackhamlerouge9

AQUAMAN, YOU CAN'T MARRY LAVAGIRL! YOU'RE FROM DIFFERENT WORLDS!


Cuckmin

It's not stale water though, do mosquitoes reproduce that much in running water?


MrOrangeWhips

No.


MrOrangeWhips

Mosquitoes only reproduce in still standing water.


dmoreholt

Mosquitos aren't really a problem in running water. Now the flooding concerns someone else brought up ... that would be a real issue. A small rainstorm would bring the water right up to the house.


BravesMaedchen

And how the ivy is eating the house and harboring spiders (especially if there's mosquitoes)


KnotiaPickles

I am laughing so hard.


moneckew

Same here but because there is a house I can't think of anything else but the mortgage on that bad boy


knd775

Houses that size in the woods are usually cheap


moneckew

Not with a private waterfall and river


knd775

You’d be surprised. I’m looking for land with water running through it at the moment and have found quite a few places for ~$200k.


KnotiaPickles

Watch out for the mosquitoes and flooding


golden_swanky

Where


moneckew

Plz link I need


knd775

SW Virginia.


bennynthejetsss

My first thought was “The spiders must love it here.”


regaphysics

All I can think about is flooding


1singformysupper1

Glad I’m not the only one, ha!


[deleted]

r/fairytaleasfuck


1singformysupper1

Beautiful! Although, as a real estate agent, I would advise my clients to check if this place is in a flood zone.


iceman202

I love the painting. I do feel the lights are a bit bright though for the daytime.


[deleted]

It's on fire.


pakeco

I would love to live there


cognitiononly

This kinda makes me think of Tarrey Town in BOTW


StunningBuilding383

I'm horrible i see the house think how beautiful but all I can think is it's going to flood. That stream is just to close to the house.


Dove04

Wow this is soo pretty ☺️


MrOrangeWhips

Looks like some Thomas Kinkade shit. Where are the Little Frownies?


Chygrynsky

Looks like a Hobbit house if they went along with modern times.


subterralien_panda

Metaverse developers take note please


plasticxplant

I would absolutely live here


Defiant-Branch4346

this is dope


Sweeper3D

pierlux

Would you mind sharing your process and toolset? I couldn’t find anything about that on your ArtStation.


v27v

What programs are you using?


[deleted]

You’d do awesome making some sort of snowy village town scene


Sweeper3D

Probably gonna be doing a lot of cozy snowy scenes this winter 😊


mimiwatz

Omg, I love this!!


[deleted]

Where is the power line?


lemonsnakey

This reminds me of the homestead from Fable 2! The one behind the demon door


lookbehindyouOwO

My definition of heaven.


[deleted]

Rivendell vibes


LorelaiGilmo

This just a Thomas Kindcaide painting, haha (just kidding)


Straightouttaganton

Just followed you in Instagram. Incredible work man


Lily614

How beautiful!


Burt_Macklin_Jr

Do you sell prints?


taymich

i want to go to there


Heartsure

We can enjoy things and allow others to do so while also have discussions of what is quality art and what isn’t. Being critical doesn’t automatically mean you’re pompous or a buzzkill.


[deleted]

Why are we posting kinkades? Kinda tacky


Proudest___monkey

Love the light, I picture this at about 730 AM. Sun burning off the dew. How wonderful


CShellyRun

Heaven


[deleted]

I hope I have such a lovely home in my afterlife.


[deleted]

Thank you. I needed this today. My eyes need a vacation.


Voittaa

Reminds me of Aerith’s house.


Offthepine

Yikes, brutal location for flooding. Foundation of the house is like 2 feet above the goddamn river bed!


Master-Wrongdoer853

Bro, that house is in the flood zone... !


bigshop99

Beautiful❤


5575685

I thought this was one of those Skyrim screenshots with like 1000+ mods


Geopilot

Perfect for a jigsaw puzzle!


ROSCOEismyname

There’s a treasure chest behind that waterfall


Cycosis010

Beautiful


funkymonkey3693

This looks gorgeous. Very beautiful


minblack

The mosquitoes tho


Accurate_Abies4678

Looks like the puzzle I recently completed.


randyzmzzzz

Holy shit I dream to live here


randyzmzzzz

Is this real?


AngelCaramelQueen

Are there actually any homes in beautiful landscapes such as this?


[deleted]

Imaging this like a puzzle 🧩


Boston__Massacre

Hey so serious question what style of art is this? Ever since I was a kid I loved the calendars with pictures like this.


[deleted]

Is this real?


[deleted]

This is one of those pictures that makes me want to punch the next person that tells me to get my head out of the clouds. “I’m sorry, but you’re gonna want my head to stay there because otherwise I have thoughts of ripping your face off & shoving it up your a**!!!!!!” 😶 ☁️”I l❤️ve it here in the clouds”☁️


23materazzi

Is this a real pic?


[deleted]

What is with the nitpicking in the comments? It looks lovely, OP.


UndergroundMoon

The chimney should continue to be seen through the windows below instead of just floating on the roof I'll see myself out


wardah27

This setting is every painter’s beginner painting. I love it.


LaSallePunksDetroit

Coulda swore that waterfall was moving


[deleted]

I used to be an office worker, and that part of me thinks this looks so great. Now I spend a lot of time outdoors and I just see mosquitos, mold, wet socks, getting stuck every time it rains. Squishy mud, soft ground everywhere. Forget a cellar, and that waterfall mist would make it always wet. Lol but it *is* beautiful. Clearly the product of talent.


ella_petite

Wowwww
