"I love lighthouses. The severe, uncompromising life of service lived by lonely lighthouse keepers possesses a special dignity. Poised between the last outcroppings of land and the vast expanse of the ocean, the lighthouse has become a profound symbol of human life, poised as it is between the transitory and the eternal."
- Thomas Kinkade

Seaside artworks are one of Thomas Kinkade's most popular subjects. The call of the ocean and crashing waves on rocky cliffs appeal to those who love the sea such as Navy sailors, Merchant Marines, Coast Guard, and anyone who has ever challenged the sea in a boat or ship.

Courage ("Life Values Collection II") This is Thom's second artwork in his new Life Values Collection collection (The first artwork in the series is "Perserverance")
       Courage depicts a sailboat that has come near the shore, illustrating Thom s message that storms which confront all of us during the journey of life can be overcome through perseverance, faith, and courage.
The journey of life, like the journey across an ocean, continues even after we reach safe harbor. Courage is a work of personal meaning for Thom, and his prayer is that it will inspire us with a bit of hope and courage when we need it most.
There are a total of 7 hidden N’s in the artwork... can you find them all? The N’s are a tribute to his wife Nanette.

+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++
"The moral order of God’s universe is like an exquisite tapestry; the foundational values of the good life interweave in a seamless whole. In my Life Values Collection, I explore the connections between these divinely inspired values. Perseverance,the first issue,considers life as a voyage through stormy seas – a test of faith and a demonstration of God’s sustaining love. COURAGE, my new Life Values painting, expands on the metaphor of a sea voyage, bringing us to the moment of divine inspiration, when God graces us with courage beyond the merely human – the resolve we need to overcome any obstacle.. I make full use of a vocabulary of personal artistic symbols to convey this message: God rewards our perseverance with His gift of courage. Our lone sailor has come within sight of a lighthouse; the beacon of divine love will guide him to shore .Smoke curls from the chimney of the keeper’s solid brick cottage, hinting at domestic comforts within. A sublime radiance breaks through the clouds, embracing the boat in its holy light.

I painted COURAGE at a time when I was especially grateful for God’s hand of deliverance in my life. May it remind you that courage is, truly, a gift from the Almighty."
