Green-Lipped Mussel Shell

Green-Lipped Mussel Shell by Kristine Kainer

Oil

6x6

Purchase Information

The contents of this green-lipped mussel shell were enjoyed at a recent excursion to a nearby seafood restaurant/raw bar.  Also known as the greenshell mussel, it is from New Zealand.  I must say that, despite its long journey to Texas, it was incredibly meaty and juicy.  Flavored with a little bit of garlic butter, I was in heaven.  Of course, upon seeing both the inside and outside of the shells, I had to abscond with a few (wrapped in a napkin) in my purse to to immortalize later as paintings.  Here is my first attempt.

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 for Dad

Oil on Canvas Panel (Museum Grade)

6x6

NFS

This painting is a second birthday gift for my dad, Lt. Col. Peter G. Scharf, USMC-Ret.  It is a companion piece to my previous post of a clam shell.  Dad is now enjoying both in his home in Florida.  Happy Birthday once again, Dad!

Clam Shell

Oil on Canvas Panel

NFS

This clam shell painting is a birthday gift for my amazing father, Lt. Col. Peter G. Scharf, USMC-Ret.  I spent my childhood along the Eastern Seaboard, from North Carolina to Maine.  As a result of our proximity to the Atlantic, shellfish was commonplace in our home.  I fondly remember Dad leaning over the sink, shucking clams and slurping out the delicious meat and juices--as a snack.

Dad eventually taught me how to eat them.  At first, he paid me for each one I managed to "stomach."  After the first or second one though, I quickly realized how delicious they were!  I made some decent money that day....  Happy Birthday, Dad!

Oyster Shell

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

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"

Purchase Information

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....

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....

Freshly shucked oysters can still be had--regardless of the time of year--here in Austin.  My mother, daughter, and I recently dined at Perla's on South Congress and, of course, ordered the oysters.  Lots of photos were taken (of the oysters, not the family).  These were part of my lunch....

First, I will need to rephotograph this painting again. The oils were still quite wet; hence, there are some glossy spots that look like white paint. Regardless, I love California rolls--especially with lots of wasabi. If I don't cry, then I haven't used enough!
