Peace and tranquility are truly valuable. When I gaze at the calm waters around Nanette's Cottage, it takes me back to the simpler times in my life. About sixteen years ago, I had the opportunity to live a quieter life. Some might say it was during this period that I first discovered the peace that has become the core of my art. During a long stay in southern England, I found that life was more gentle and kind for those who sought it. As a young family, we often took evening walks to the cottages along the winding stream in our village. It was on one of these walks that I found a cottage that would always be linked to my wife, Nanette. 'I'd love to live in a cottage like that someday,' Nanette said then. Now, as we approach our 27th anniversary and my wife's birthday, I'm finally giving Nanette the gift of that cottage, just as I've given painted cottages to my children in the past. Surrounding Nanette's Cottage are the signs of a good life: a lasting faith represented by the spire in the distance, physical activity shown by the row - boat with a sailor (Nanette's childhood teddy bear), and the warm lights from the cottages symbolizing home and comfort. This is a place for everyone to take a break from life's hardships. Maybe, like me, you long for such places as life gets busier and more stressful. Here is a haven for those who miss simpler times. Thomas Kinkade Studios' Limited Edition Paper Prints are made with great attention to detail and color accuracy. These are the best, most sought - after paper prints from Thomas Kinkade Studios. Each print is made on premium 100 - lb archival paper with long - lasting, fade - resistant inks. Every paper reproduction is individually numbered and comes with a matching Certificate of Authenticity. When it comes to framing, we work hard to keep the Limited Edition quality of each print. The print is placed between 1/8' shatter - resistant Plexiglas and a rigid foam core backing, so no mounting adhesive touches the art. The framed art has a heavy craft paper backing and a coated wire hanger. It not only looks great but also protects the art for years. The framing features include premium museum - quality mouldings, shatter - resistant Plexiglas, a heavy craft paper back, and a coated wire hanger. The print itself is on premium 100 - lb paper, uses long - life pigment inks that are better than regular press inks, has an edition number on each Limited Edition, and comes with an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
Using your Thomas Kinkade's Limited Edition Nanette's Cottage Paper Print is easy. First, find a nice spot on your wall to hang it. The coated wire hanger makes it simple to put up. You can place it in your living room, bedroom, or any place where you want to add a touch of peace and beauty. When it comes to cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the shatter - resistant Plexiglas. Avoid using any harsh chemicals or abrasive materials as they might damage the print or the framing. Keep the print away from direct sunlight for long periods. Sunlight can cause the colors to fade over time, even though the inks are fade - resistant. If you need to move the print, hold it by the frame to avoid touching the paper. And always store it in a dry place to prevent any moisture damage. Enjoy your beautiful print and let it bring the serenity of Nanette's Cottage into your life.
