High Country Christmas is a classic winter scene by Thomas Kinkade, the Painter of Light™. It's Christmas at this beautiful cottage that nestles in the foothills of the mountains. The scene recalls those special Christmas memories that all of us share: of family, Christmas trees, twinkling lights, & special gifts laid out for those we love. & in the stillness of evening, when the sun sets & stars emerge, there is a gentle quiet that descends upon our hearts & homes, that remind us of that first Christmas. Kinkade grew up in the town of Placerville, California & attended the University of California, Berkeley & the Art Centre College of Design in Pasadena. In June 1980, Kinkade spent a summer traveling across the United States with his college friend James Gurney & when the two of them finished their journey in New York they secured a contract with Guptill Publications to produce a sketching handbook. Two years later they produced The Artist's Guide to Sketching, which was one of Guptill Publications' best-sellers that year. The success of the book landed him & Gurney at Ralph Bakshi Studios creating background art for the 1983 animated feature film Fire & Ice. While working on the film, Kinkade began to explore the depiction of light & of imagined worlds & decided to earn his living as a painter. A key feature of Thomas Kinkade's paintings are their glowing highlights & his works often portray idyllic settings such as gardens, streams & stone cottages. Sadly, Thomas Kinkade died on Good Friday in 2012, but he will always be remembered as ‘ America's most-collected living artist.’
