"Tangled Up In Love"

When the kingdom’s most wanted and most handsome bandit, Flynn Rider, takes refuge in an old and mysterious tower, he’s instantly captured by Rapunzel, the spire’s beautiful and longtime resident. She has been locked away for years, forced to grow over 70 feet of magical golden hair, and desperately wants to see the kingdom’s annual floating lantern festival for her 18th birthday. The gutsy teenager strikes a deal with Flynn and together they begin a whirlwind adventure full of excitement–and possibly love.

Tangled is a re-telling of the traditional fairy tale Rapunzel and joins other great titles as the 50th addition in the Walt Disney animated classic film series. It is with great pride then, that we at the Thomas Kinkade Studio have worked to fully realize the film's message of following your dream. Tangled reflects a master work of light and romance. This panoramic portrayal captures the newfound love of Rapunzel and Flynn as they boat together on her 18th birthday. Many of the film's unforgettable characters, including Maximus, Pascal and Mother Gothel, are seen on the lake shore. A thousand floating lanterns glow against the starlight of the night sky. Even the smallest light can fill a darkened room and love can indeed conquer all. We at the Thomas Kinkade Studios hope you enjoy Tangled.

About the Painter of Light

In the very beginning of his artistic career, Thomas Kinkade put his entire life savings into the printing of his first lithograph. Though at the time he was already an acclaimed illustrator, Thom found that he was inspired not by fame and fortune, but by the simple act of painting straight from the heart, putting on canvas the natural wonders and images that moved him most. It was this dedication and singular-minded focus on the ultimate goal of Sharing the Light™ that made Thomas Kinkade, a simple boy with a brush from the small country town of Placerville, California the most-collected living artist of his time.

Throughout his life Thomas Kinkade shared his joy and used his paints in support of hospitals, schools, and humanitarian relief. Though the recipient of countless awards and honors, it was Thom’s profound sense of purpose that his art was not just an accessory, but also a ministry, that continues on as his legacy. From custom images that were sold for The Salvation Army, Hurricane Katrina relief, Rotary International, to donations that now grace the halls of St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, the White House, The Vatican, and Britain’s Tate Museum, Thom raised hundreds of thousands of dollars over his lifetime for charity.

Thomas Kinkade the artist was also a devout and loving family man. It was this devotion for his family that inspired him to add symbols of his love to his artwork. Numerous paintings contain hidden “N’s” representing Thom’s lovely wife Nanette and many other paintings include the numbers 5282 as tribute to their wedding date May 2, 1982. Thom’s four daughters were also included in his artistic process- after the birth of each of his daughters, Thom painted adoring images in each of their namesake; Evening at Merritt’s Cottage, Chandler’s Cottage, Winsor Manor and Everett’s Cottage.

Thomas Kinkade, the Painter of Light™, emphasized simple pleasures and inspirational messages through his art – and the branded products created from that art. From textiles, to collectibles, to music and books, Thom gave credit to a higher power for both the ability and the inspiration to create his paintings. His goal as an artist, who was Christian, was to touch people of all faiths, to bring peace and joy into their lives through the images he had created.

Thom’s dearest wish had always been that his artwork would be a messenger of hope and inspiration to others – a message to slow down, appreciate the little details in life, and to look for beauty in the world around us. As millions of collectors around the world sit back and enjoy his artwork in their homes, there is no doubt that Thomas Kinkade had indeed achieved his goal of Sharing the Light.
