The 2008 vote

I’d seen this on Trinity Broadcasting Network in January, but honestly had forgotten.

Painter Thomas Kinkade is creating the officially licensed commemorative portrait of the 50th running of the Daytona 500. He created eight sketches and two paintings at the Speedway during Speedweeks 2008.

You can vote for your favorite until Saturday, March 15 at www.thomaskinkade.com

Everyone who votes is in the running to win a Limited Edition print of the selected portrait.

This kind of painting is not exactly what we know Thomas Kinkade to create. Normally, they are Christian themed, with lights, lighthouses, cottages and pathways, trees and the like.

Some of the offerings for Daytona are good, the others, so-so. I made my selection, so I’ll wait to see if it’s the fan favorite.

Get on that site and vote for your favorite. If you don’t win the print, you can always purchase it through the site or any of the licensed galleries.
