Bleh, I never liked Kinkade's style. I totally get the comparison between Shag and Kinkade in terms of mass-marketing, but I just love Shag's style so much that I don't care. When I first heard of him, I had no idea he was well known in any way. Just saw the stuff he was doing for Disney and thought it was cool. I never conisdered anything other than what it is, pop graphic art. But it's damned good pop graphic art.
But even I'm shagged out. Actually, I'm pretty Disney-arted out at the moment. 5 prints plus a map reproduction is MORE than enough for our tiny place.
