I had the pleasure of meeting him back in 2006 and was able to show him some of my work. Tom was very kind and went out of his way to offer me feedback and encouragement. I remember that his eyes lit up when I mentioned your name, James. My heart breaks for his wife and children. I send them and you my deepest condolences.Ezrahttp://www.ezrasuko.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-44743645848887560032012-04-07T12:03:58.495-04:002012-04-07T12:03:58.495-04:00My deepest condolences for Kinkade's passing. ...My deepest condolences for Kinkade's passing.

I was just recently telling someone that I knew that you and Thomas Kinkade were friends long ago. You both have made major contributions via completely different paths. Kinkade was often disliked by painters, but my friend Irene (age 82) thinks the world of him. I think of Kinkade as a modern day Currier and Ives, he made legions of people happy. My condolences to you.Celeste Berginhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06791708298070342301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-56032352276576478812012-04-07T10:29:03.249-04:002012-04-07T10:29:03.249-04:00Oh, man, this video makes me trunky for China.

One excellent salute to your influence for good. Well done, James.<br /><br />BTW, condolences on the death of your long-time friend Thomas Kinkade.Lester Yocumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16825921969405494777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-59975792942345096772012-04-07T09:06:03.720-04:002012-04-07T09:06:03.720-04:00First of all, and most importantly James, I'm ...First of all, and most importantly James, I'm very sorry your loss of your friend, Thomas Kinkade. I do know it will take some time for, as you say, this news to sink in for you.<br /><br />Thanks so much for this great video! It's fantastic to view and I only wish for it to be longer (of course). <br /><br />One question: I've been puzzling over the strips of color in the center of your watercolor box (between the rows of color pans). I don't think the box came like that (did it?), and the colors don't seem to exactly correlate to the colors in the pans.<br /><br />Thanks again.Tom Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04770238579550226268noreply@blogger.com
