The Shrimper


This is a 16 X 20 canvas that I painted in acrylics. Inspired by Jerry Yarnell, this was quite challenging to do all the little details. I kept finding myself looking to see if I missed anything. Even with all of the details, it's interesting to see that the main focus is still the shrimp boat. I really enjoyed doing this painting and learned how frustrating it is to do waves and water. Forest Gump named his boat Jenny. I have a painting friend named Jennie that has been painting Yarnell's paintings along with me and so I thought I would get her going by naming my boat after her.
