+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
"There are few places on Earth that are more awe-inspiring than Yosemite Valley
nestled in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Home of the undisputed King of the
valley is 'El Capitan', an exposed rock face of unmatched size that serves as
silent sentinel presiding over the majesty of Yosemite’s other natural wonders.
As I painted I would often muse,
"You see the face of God in nature...in the mountain vista. You hear Him in
the rustle of the wind in the trees...taste, smell and feel Him in the
fragrance of flowers and in the sweet air and water found in the cathedral of
the wild.” Indeed, there is no more profound visual exposition of this soul-
searched sentiment than in the painting, Yosemite Meadow'.
In this oil, riders are dwarfed against the glory of the background as
perspective to man’s place in creation and in relation to their Creator. As I
completed Yosemite Meadow, I counted each day as a blessing and took in
the full glory of God’s creation.
