00:00Hi everybody, and welcome to the world of Thomas Kinkade.

00:07I have about 20 of his paintings.

00:0980 paintings.

00:10Approximately 175 of his paintings.

00:12Yeah, way too many.

00:13Art is something for everyone.

00:18By 2000, the company was breaking $100 million.

00:21For what was being sold, that was unheard of.

00:26$10,250. $10,250. $10,500.

00:32People were buying not just a painting,

00:34they were buying a piece of Thomas Kinkade,

00:38which involved a performance as a pious Christian.

00:42God bless.

00:43Oh, s***.

00:44I mean, he was like a holy man.

00:46I'm not going to fall victim to the same crises that you see

00:50in so many people who get put in the public eye.

00:52That won't happen to me.

00:56People described him as a Jekyll and Hyde,

00:59Christian painter of light by day,

01:01and raging strip club attending,

01:03out of control, drunk by night.

01:06He had it all, and he threw it away.

01:12We knew that the vault existed,

01:14but I don't remember ever going in there.

01:22Uh-oh.

01:26I'm glad that he made these.

01:28Wow.

01:29You could say Thomas Kinkade was a performance artist,

01:33and he created the greatest performance art piece

01:36in our lifetime.
