Thomas Kinkade was arrested for driving under the influence outside of Carmel, California, over the summer, and now the sentence has been handed down: The self-named “painter of light” — famous for selling lots and lots of shlocky paintings with titles like “Central Park in the Fall” and “Tinker Bell and Peter Pan Fly to Neverland” — will do ten days in jail, nine months of a DUI offender program, and five years of informal court probation, and pay a $1,846 fine. Kinkade’s BAC was at double the legal limit, which, wow. Also: In order to make his stay in the big house a bit less daunting, Vulture has created an image, above, of prison as Kinkade might see it.
