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.
My blog is a record of my progress as a painter. I'd like to share some of my milestones, accomplishments, and special links. Nature's beauty is everywhere; all we have to do is look for it. I'm always looking to expand my artwork by trying new things. My latest venture is pastels and they are so much fun.
