Shrimps for Dinner....Oil Painting

I love this painting.  It is 16x20 oil on canvas and I just love it. 

It is New Orleans....it is summer....it is friends....it is eating and having fun....messy hands....hanging out and laughing...everything I like about the South.

I was talking to my daughter at a recent art festival and I said..."I just love how this painting turned out!"  I told her "I love the shrimp, and the wine glass, and the checked tablecloth!  and the corn, I LOVE the corn! and the olive oil bottle!" 

She said, " It sounds like you pretty much like everything about this painting!"

I said, "Well, the plate's ok"

Then I decided I really like it too!
