BELOW: Thomas Kinkade Background for Bakshi / Frazetta Fire & Ice Film "Masks"
Thomas Kinkade along with his college buddy James Gurney walked into Bakshi Studios as a painting duo straight out of college at the early age of 21. Bakshi says Tom was genius at talking him into hiring both of them - even before he knew he was a marketing maven - he was a gifted salesman. As well as artist. Kinkade and Gurney worked their asses off perfecting the paintings that were to become backgrounds for Frazetta and Bakshi's Fire & Ice. Bakshi recalls this was the time Kinkade started playing with the idea of light and having it glow through the magical land that was being created.
