Shrimp Boat


30"x40" oil

This is a commission that has been planned since April. A friend of mine used to live in Louisiana and I'd visit and fish in the Gulf. I had a fondness for the shrimp boats. So he found the image and I agreed to paint it. Seems appropiate subject matter considering what has since happened in the Gulf.

I like the colours you've used for sky and water. All tie in with the colours of the boat. I'd be really happy if you'd painted it for my wall.

Thanks Bridget. Commissions are tough. There's always the rejection factor.
