Shrimp Boats







I have lived in Louisiana almost 40 years now.  There is still
a lot of the state that I am not familiar with.  I love boats, and always
enjoy painting them.  I was able to drive through south Louisiana
this past weekend, and photograph some shrimp boats.  I have
always been interested in them, and they have such charm and
character.

Most of these were around the town of Houma, which is below New
Orleans, in the marsh area of the state.  A couple of them were along
Bayou Teche, closer to Lafayette.  I hope to paint some of them soon.
