So, here it is, the moment so many of you have been waiting for. I present the new release of Indy Excitement. For all racing fans, myself included, this is a very exciting release! I loved Nascar Thunder, which he painted to commemorate the 50th running of the Daytona 500, and now we have Indy Excitement to add to the collection.
This great painting celebrates 100 years of racing at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He was even allowed to take his sketching materials onto the racetrack and set up his easel at the famous brickyard starting line. He sure doesn’t make it easy, does he? How does one pick a favorite painting with so many icredible images he’s published?
I have to tell you, when I look at these paintings, it makes me feel like I’m watching the races again, except I get to see it all day, every day. I can even imagine how it will end and who will conquer the racetrack. The season never quite seems long enough, but now it’s as if it never ends.
What a great idea to combine the art of Thomas Kinkade and the thrill of racing. The “Painter of Light” has done it again and he’s on fire! I continue to look forward to what he’ll come up with next. I hope you enjoy this preview, but believe me, it does no justice to the actual canvas. Come on in to the Peddler’s Village and Freehold Galleries and see for yourself. It truly is an amazing work of art! See you all very soon!

I bought the Nascar Thunder last year and I was really excited to see what he’d do next. I really like this painting. I plan on making a trip to your gallery next weekend to see it in person. I have the perfect place for it!
I’m a big race fan and I think it’s great that Kinkade has branched out in this direction!
