The woman running the gallery (sorry I forgot your name!) made me and my family feel so welcome. My mom was so excited visiting her favorite artists gallery and purchased a couple prints. Thank you for making the moment special
Nice place to go. Love the paintings. Town is awesome. Looks like it never changed from the 20s - 30s
Their food is Sooooo Good! They are newly open. Not real fast yet but they are working on it
I remember admiring Thomas Kinkades paintings so many years ago. Back then, it never occurred to me that Id end up living so close to the places that best inspired him to create such beautiful art. You get to walk thru the art gallery for free. It is a treat! Im mesmerized by the details he so beautifully translated onto canvas. He was a truly talented artist.
Though it is indeed the birthtown of Tomas Kinkaid This specific gallery was never his, he died before this space was ever occupied.his space was over beside the Carrie House. Also who is painting all this Disney stuff it sure doesnt seem to be his at all based on That He Is Long Dead!Let the man rest in peace and stop trying to make money off his name.
I love his work and appreciate his motivation never to be poor again. There is not enough advertisement of his work as what there should be.
I highly recommend this Art Gallery. Elsie is the best and I will be back again.
Took a blind friend to this gallery and he said it smelled nice but his seeing eye dog got very upset and tried to rip down the art
Wonderful
Great place to bring the elderly or anyone who likes kitsch.
Living in South Carolina we have 2 Kinkade Stores. Both are horrible with bad service and overpriced. I contacted the company and they said to give Elsie a call. Last year I gave her a call looking for a rare piece. I did not know they are the first and original Gallery but the best. I was looking for Sunset At Riverbend Farm, and the gallery in Savannah scoffed at me when I told them I wanted it. I called Elsie and she had it at issue price and a military discount. I ordered it immediately. Layaways are worked around your budget and not around we need this and this and you have this long. They want everyone to enjoy the experience and the chance to own one. I had a hiccup last year and had to cancel my layaway and I lost my Little Mermaid I was assured I could get another one. This year I got a double whammy they introduced Yosemite and I nearly had a coronary when they released Tangled. I called Elsie and she took care of everything. All pieces are highlighted before being shipped and have low cost shipping. Elsie is very honest and sincerely cares about everyone. She will not sell you a picture you do not want. She has done this awhile. She can pick a frame and if you want something rare she can get it. I am amazed and flabbergasted that they treat you as who you are not a tourist or a dollar sign. I told Elsie she cannot retire till I have a Kinkade for every year I am old. So I will be 36 this year and have 3 big ones and 6 little ones and 1 brushed work. Cannot wait to see whats next. Please call and talk to Elsie you will not be disappointed.
Love coming here to look at and buy art
Great art selection
A lot of examples here... from small gifts to large, rare and original paintings already framed.
