|
Publisher Proofs (P/P)
The Publisher Proofs are limited to 12% of the Standard Numbered total
edition size, making the edition scarcer and more desired. These
lithographs on canvas are individually hand highlighted. P/Ps are
designated with the letters P/P during the numbering process. Each piece is
individually hand-numbered with an P/P designation after the print number to
correspond with the certificate.
These are considered highly collectible due to the very small amounts made
and these sell out faster than any other edition as a general rule.

+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
"Ten years ago I painted Carmel, Ocean Avenue on a Rainy Afternoon, and from
the day I finished it, I dreamed of working on a second view of the famous scene.
Carmel, Sunset on Ocean Avenue is that long awaited painting! Like the first
piece, this painting is overflowing with the kind of details I love to paint:
the old mission bell in its stone portico, the stately Monterey pines that
shroud the avenue, and the bustling people (even a dog or two!) that are so
much a part of the ambiance of Carmel. Even the members of my immediate
family managed to find their way into the painting. My two older girls peer
out of a vintage blue convertible while my two younger daughters make their
way across the street and my wife Nanette pauses beside her bicycle to watch
an artist at work. (Guess who posed for the artist!)
My romantic vision of Carmel is also enlivened by many vintage cars and the
charming buildings of the seaside town the lights of which reflect,
jewel-like, in streets moistened by the passing of ocean mists. And, of
course, a luminous sunset bathes the entire scene in a warm glow, as though a
tranquil moment has been frozen in time."
