The Thomas Kinkade Gallery, located in the Tacoma Mall, is a truly amazing place. Kinkade is the Painter of Light, so the gallery uses light to showcase the many reproduction paintings. Control knobs let you change the lighting from bright to dim and back again, and this allows you to see the paintings changing colors and "lights" winking on and off. An incredibly amazing effect! You can compare the different paintings side by side, as well, with the light effects - much better than looking at them on a computer screen or in a catalog.
