Bay Oyster

Kristine Kainer
Oil on Canvas Panel (Museum Grade)
6x6

This little oyster shell has lots of purple areas on the inside which made it extremely unusual from those I typically encounter at raw bars and restaurants.  Of course, it came home with me to be immortalized in a painting.  

NOTE:  I’m proud to have this painting represented online by UGallery. View my portfolio here: https://www.ugallery.com/Artist/Kristine-Kainer.

Oysters on the Half Shell - Coastal Art


Oil on Gallery Wrapped Canvas
20 x 20 x 1.375
Purchase Information

Here in Texas, we have delicious oysters from the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. These particular ones were from Galveston Bay. A squirt of lemon and quick dip into cocktail sauce (heavy on the horseradish) make this a welcome appetizer. Like potato chips, though, you can’t eat just one!

Oysters on the Half Shell Lazy Susan



Acrylic on MDF (Furniture Grade) Lazy Susan
SOLD - Commissions Welcome

Last year I was commissioned by the wife of the CEO of my husband's company about painting a couple of fruit Lazy Susans.  After much research and occasional hair-pulling (these were new waters for me), I completed the project and was smitten with the results.

Well, my parents were smitten as well.  For Christmas, they each got a coastal-themed Lazy Susan.  Above is the one I did for my dad.  These oysters will never spoil!

Commissions welcome!

Purple Oyster Shell

6x6
Oil on Canvas
SOLD

This is a special oyster shell for an obvious reason:  the smooth inner shell (also known as the Mother of Pearl or nacre) is mostly purple.  Nature is full of surprises.  One just needs to pay attention....

Oyster Shell

Oil on Canvas
Purchase Information

As many of you know, I love to eat shellfish, then take the shells home in a doggy bag.  Recently, I was visiting my father in Florida and had the opportunity to dine on the freshest shellfish daily.  Unfortunately, bringing the shells back to his house, then lugging them home on the plane was not an option.  Thank goodness I had my handy dandy iPhone camera at the ready!  Here's to my model, somewhere in Florida.... You will always be remembered!

Oyster Shell

Oil on Canvas Panel (Museum Grade)
6x6
SOLD

Another oyster.  Another delicious meal last month--slathered in cocktail sauce, horseradish (can anyone find "Gold's Horseradish" in their supermarkets?  I MUST HAVE SOME!), and the squirt of a lemon.  Briny goodness....

Oyster on the Half Shell

Oil
12x12
SOLD

I had the pleasure of returning to New Orleans during the recent Christmas holidays.  Every day, I had at least one meal consisting of fresh Gulf oysters.  This fine specimen is just one of the many juicy ones I devoured.  (Slurp, slurp.)

Oyster on the Half Shell


Oil on Belgian Linen Panel (Museum Grade) 
6"x6"


This little gem of the sea was served to me at The Deckhand, an oyster bar in Round Rock, Texas. Fresh from the waters of Galveston, I had to immortalize its luscious beauty prior to devouring it with a squeeze of lemon and horseradish. The other patrons must have thought I was insane as I took pictures galore before allowing anyone in my family to touch the platter! (My family, of course, knows the routine.) By the way, it was delicious....

Gulf Oyster Shell

Oil
20x20

There is nothing like slurping down freshly shucked oysters at the beach -- with lots of sand between your toes!  Alas, in Austin, I must sit at an oyster bar.  At least my car won't get sandy....

Oyster Shell

The only thing better than this shell would be having the actual oyster to eat OR a pearl inside.  I'd take either.

Oyster with Lemon Wedges and Cocktail Sauce


Oil on stretched canvas, 20x20x1-3/8, View eBay Listing
Here it is--my newest (and all-time favorite) painting! I truly challenged myself with this one--not only the much larger size, but dealing with silverware, china, and a shiny, slippery food item (the ever succulent oyster!). I hope you will enjoy viewing this as much as I enjoyed painting it. Bon Appetit!

Oyster with Lemon


Oil on Canvas Panel, 6x6--SOLD
We are now the proud owners of a gallon of freshly shucked oysters from the Gulf of Mexico. Needless to say, I've been snacking on them throughout the day (covered in horseradish). Slurp, slurp!

Oyster Shell


Acrylic on Artists' Board, 6x6--SOLD
My family and I went to an oyster bar in San Antonio recently. My daughter was mortified when I asked for a doggie bag for the oyster shells! (Clearly, she didn't realize their artistic value....)
