Thomas Kinkade Studios is proud to present the latest interpretation of an American film classic. A Christmas Story is a holiday tale filled with good humor, iconic imagery and quotable dialog, a perfect subject for a retelling in oil. Enter the small town of Hohman, Indiana and the quaint home of 9-year-old Ralphie Parker. In epic narrative style, Ralphie s quest for his BB gun is highlighted in rich and loving detail with the story s many unforgettable characters and events. Meet the Bumpus dogs whose rampaging appetites eventually cause the Parker family to have Christmas dinner in a Chinese restaurant. Smile while remembering how Flick, Ralphie s best friend, is triple dog dared into placing his tongue on a frozen flagpole. Enjoy finally having proof that Ralphie s dream gift did indeed come from jolly old Saint Nick. And, of course, what retelling of this holiday favorite would be complete without a depiction of what a BB gun can do in a young boy s hands. Ralphie nearly did shoot his eye out! Thomas Kinkade Studio s painting of A Christmas Story truly captures the magic of the film in full. A Christmas Story is a painting sure to delight fans of the film and be a desirable addition to the collections of all those interested in American cinema. The warm colors and subtle shadings bring an American cityscape to life as the town s citizens contend with their day. The welcoming lights of the houses turn on as dusk changes to night and the evening sky glows. Thomas Kinkade Studios wish you a merry holiday season and want to thank you for Sharing The Light™!
