Flower Patch Visitor

About This Artwork

Butterflies are truly a natural indulgence. Their flutter and their color both dominate their life purpose and satisfy my personal sense of delighted aesthetic. They are simply fun to watch and pretty to look at. Further, they are also the perfect subjects for a spring painting. In my composition a blue butterfly settles into a patch of red, pink flowers. It feels the flowers are group of fellow flutterers congregated in the spring grass. Or the flowers attract the blue fly because of the sweet fragrance they provide to the wafting air. In either case, the settled visitor provides a beautiful blue contrast to the floral surround. I certainly enjoyed painting Flower Patch Visitor, and I hope you enjoy its view. As always, thank you for sharing my adventures in art.

About the Artist

Zac Kinkade

Zac Kinkade

Zachary Thomas Kinkade, Thomas Kinkade’s nephew, was born in 1992 and has been passionate about art his entire life. Beginning when he was 11, Zachary began entering and winning national and regional art competitions and shows. Deciding that art was his calling, Zac submitted a portfolio to the Fort Worth Academy of Fine Art and was accepted to the school in preparation of formal university training the arts. During this time, Zac also attended Tarrant County College to study art and most significantly began apprenticing at the Thomas Kinkade Company to explore his own aesthetic vision. Zac continued these relationships while attending Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, where he eventually graduated with honors from that academy’s prestigious school of art and architecture.
