Colton Hall, Monterey, by Thomas Kinkade

I frequently feel inspired to pass on some of what I have learned to younger artists and collectors. Recently I did just that at Colton Hall in Monterey. The 150 year old town hall seemed a suitable place for such a gathering. The link between past and present comes dramatically alive in this place.

I painted Colton Hall, Monterey on a splendid day when a brilliant afternoon sun dappled the vast lawn with patches of light and shade. It provided me a wonderful occasion to demonstrate my techniques for capturing light to a large and eager audience. – Thomas Kinkade
