+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
"Cinderella Wishes Upon A Dream, fourth piece in my popular Disney
Dreams Collection, has given me the chance to push the limits of my
ability farther than I ever have. Hundreds of hours of detailing were
required to capture a setting magical enough for a princess and her
charming prince. On the towering mountain in the distance we see
Cinderella's castle, a vision inspired by the movie. Coming down from
the castle road we see Cinderella's horseman and coach, galloping
towards the sleeping village below.
As Cinderella and her prince cross the stone bridge over the lover's
reflecting pool, we pause to enjoy the numerous details that make this
scene so inviting. Cinderella's many friends are here. The whimsical
mice with their charming antics can be found dotted around the scene
(see how many you can count!). Cinderella's other tiny helpers, the
colorful birds of the kingdom have built a nest in the tree house
hidden in the foliage. Flowers glow in abundance, while overhead the
stars twinkle radiantly. The entire scene seems aglow with the
magical blessing of the Fairy Godmother, who rides atop a splendid
rainbow at the top of the painting. The stone statue in the garden at
the lower right suggests Cinderella's years of drudgery, yet the
sparkling gown she wears reminds us that dreams really do come true.
Lucifer the cat is busy tormenting the playful mice, while the
stepmother and stepsisters look upon the sweethearts with amazement
and perhaps a hint of joy. The king and his duke, fashioned as
weathered chimney pots in my painting, gaze with delight at the goings
on. I've put tributes to my earlier Disney collection - Snow White,
Pinocchio, and even Peter Pan and Tinker Bell can be found by a
patient viewer. This is proof positive that for Cinderella's deepest
wishes to come true, she'll need a little help from her friends!"
