O Come All Ye Faithful (Christmas Chapel I)
"I envision this painting as the first in a series of three Christmas Chapels, each taking their
inspiration from a classic Christmas carol. My prayer is that this series will give each of us a
chance to rekindle the simple joys of the Christmas season." - Thomas Kinkade
- O Come All Ye Faithful, Christmas Chapel I is the first in Thom’s new Christmas Chapel
collection, which is planned for three images.
- Thom has placed a total of 25 N’s in O Come All Ye Faithful, Christmas Chapel I in tribute to
his wife Nanette, as well as in celebration for his 25 years as a published artist.
- Did you know that the top five selling CHAPEL images of all time are 1) Mountain Chapel, 2)
Forest Chapel, 3) Streams of Living Water, 4) Sunday Evening Sleigh Ride and 5) Dogwood Chapel?
- Did you know that the top five selling CHRISTMAS scenes of all time are 1) Holiday Gathering, 2)
Village Christmas, 3) Blessings of Christmas, 4) Sunday Evening Sleigh Ride and 5) Lights of
Liberty?
- In this work, Thom features a new technique called “the radiant palette,” where he intensifies
the mid range. This makes the glow more intense and radiant than ever, while the shadows grow
darker.
- O Come All Ye Faithful, Christmas Chapel I features a country church — with an old-fashioned
celebration of Christmas in the country — an intimate gathering of family and friends on Christmas
Eve.
- This is a classic timeless image of Christmas. Thom’s favorite part is the ragged cross on the
steeple. He wanted to portray the light of hope that we can have during Christmas. The cross is a
symbol of hope.
- O Come All Ye Faithful, Christmas Chapel I is a celebration of details, with a Christmas Eve
service in progress — the log building glowing with light pouring out. We can tell that people are
inside celebrating, with a fire to keep them warm, maybe even singing the hymn,“O Come All Ye
Faithful”.

+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
"I love the Christmas Eve services and the traditions that go along with them. In our church, it
means lighting candles and passing them symbolically from one person to another. As I envisioned
this tradition on canvas, I began to imagine that in an ideal world the Christmas Eve service would
happen in a country chapel along a snowy wooded lane. The crisp night air is filled with silent
snowflakes as a classic one-horse sleigh jingles through the frosty scene. Footsteps in the snow
lead to the chapel door, suggesting that the church is filled with merry worshippers. The chapel is
brilliantly lit against the darkening forest and a blazing cross atop the log steeple reminds us of
the spiritual significance of the season.
I envision this painting as the first in a series of three Christmas Chapels, each taking their
inspiration from a classic Christmas carol. My prayer is that this series will give each of us a
chance to rekindle the simple joys of the Christmas season."
