During June 1980, Kinkade spent a summer traveling across the United States with his college friend James Gurney. The two of them finished their journey in New York and secured a contract with Guptill Publications to produce a sketching handbook. Two years later they produced a book, The Artist's Guide to Sketching,[1] which was one of Guptill Publications' best-sellers that year.
Thomas Kinkade Studios is proud to present the latest interpretation of an American film classic. A Christmas Story is a holiday tale filled with good humor, iconic imagery and quotable dialog, a perfect subject for a retelling in oil. Enter the small town of Hohman, Indiana and the quaint home of 9-year-old Ralphie Parker. In epic narrative style, Ralphie's quest for his BB gun is highlighted in rich and loving detail with the story's many unforgettable characters and events. Meet the Bumpus dogs whose rampaging appetites eventually cause the Parker family to have Christmas dinner in a Chinese restaurant. Smile while remembering how Flick, Ralphie's best friend, is "triple dog dared" into placing his tongue on a frozen flagpole. Enjoy finally having proof that Ralphie's dream gift did indeed come from jolly old Saint Nick. And, of course, what retelling of this holiday favorite would be complete without a depiction of what a BB gun can do in a young boy's hands. Ralphie nearly did "shoot his eye out!" Thomas Kinkade Studio's painting of A Christmas Story truly captures the magic of the film in full. A Christmas Story is a painting sure to delight fans of the film and be a desirable addition to the collections of all those interested in American cinema. The warm colors and subtle shadings bring an American cityscape to life as the town's citizens contend with their day. The welcoming lights of the houses turn on as dusk changes to night and the evening sky glows.

And more than that, in the late works of the painter Turner, the sea and the heavens are integrated into one, forming a huge storm vortex, engulfing all forms. These works seem to foretell the experiment of modern abstract painting, especially the experiment of the abstract expressionist Jackson Pollock. Constable used this technique of expressing storms in the form of a whirlwind as Turner's "Tinted Steam." "A blizzard - a steamboat leaving the port" is an example. From this perspective, Turner seems to be far ahead of the times.

In this sketch of the painter thoams kinkade, the entire hand is treated as a block, with front A and side B. Each phalanx of each finger is also treated as a cube. When the face-to-face transition turns, Rubens deals with a strong contrast between light and dark,
which is most clearly seen at the intersection of block c and block D. Notice the projection (E) on the front side, this shadow disappears on the side, because the main light source leaves the projection on the side never seen. The projection of the reflected light may be on the side, but this is rarely allowed.

To draw a quasi-contour, you must look at the whole, and compare the whole, and use the auxiliary line to help determine the position. When grasping the shape, you should grasp the features and draw them like you. The shape is beginning to see, and the image is ready to come out. Just like the artist at the entrance of the park, with the silhouette of the scissors, the figure is easily revealed, and although we can't see the fine internal structure, we can still recognize him. Some did not pay attention to this step, and the shape was still very vague, so they rushed to paint the five senses. How can the paintings drawn in this way approach the object!
