Painter of Light

[tikific]

So, Lucifer is a character in this AU. Because, I can't come up with my own characters, so I have to steal them.

Anyway, everybody hates Lucifer, not because he's eeeeevil, but because he's KIND OF A DICK.

And one of the things I did to make make him (to my mind) kind of a dick was I said that he came up with his own "Morningstar" nickname.

OK, so check out this article about the painter Thomas Kinkade. And I'm talking about this quote:

But financial challenges aside, Kinkade's artwork continues to sell. He is, after all, the "Painter of Light" — he came up with the nickname himself.

I'm not saying Kinkade is Satan. Or even necessarily a dick. (If you read the article, it sounds like a lot of gallery owners have accused him of fraud.) It's just ... weird.

Yeah, I actually ganked this from someone else on LJ (and of course now I don't remember who) who wasn't a fan. Guess these guys can start to believe their own publicity!!
