Piece of the Week: “Beached” by Kristine Kainer

“This painting is based on a photograph taken by a former coworker of mine in Virginia. He and his wife were at the Outer Banks in North Carolina and countered this fishing ship and posted the picture on Facebook I absolutely fell in love with it because I used to vacation on the Outer Banks every year as a child. This painting it is kind of a fish out of water with the paintings in this exhibit in that it is not an actual piece of food to eat but oh it is a fishing boat and it’s probably fed numerous people throughout the years.” – Kristine Kainer
