About the Item

Blue and green toned watercolor and ink landscape by Louisiana artist Herman Ferrell depicting a small and recluse wooden barn house. Signed "Ferrell" by artist in the bottom right. Framed and matted in a carved wooden gold frame. Artist Biography: Herman Ferrell grew up in Southern Louisiana when it was easy to find old wooden shrimp boats throughout the coastal waters. Now that so many of those old vessels have been lost to hurricane Katrina, which battered the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, Ferrell and his stunningly accurate depictions of these watercraft are keeping their memories alive. Ferrell's deep love and appreciation for the outdoors and Cajun culture are evident in each of his southern art prints. His obvious passion and his penchant for painting shrimp boat art have made Ferrell's work highly desirable. His growing and award-winning collection is notably distinct from that of other southern artists because of Ferrell's unique and predominantly self-taught painting style. For decades, his shrimp boat art was well known only within art collection communities around the world and throughout Louisiana. But after Hurricane Katrina put New Orleans and the rest of Louisiana in the national spotlight, appreciation for his Louisiana art began to expand to new audiences. "Art is life and life is art," explains Ferrell. "Everyday we awake and create what we're going to look like for the day, the way a person dress themself is creating their own art." Although his works capture the feeling and soul, particularly with regards to his shrimp boat paintings and prints, Ferrell's artistic style has been called comfortable and relaxed because of the way the scenes tend to make the viewer feel. His Cajun art also depicts Louisiana and its scenery from a true local's perspective, offering new points of view on the region to others who rarely think of Louisiana beyond New Orleans' city limits. "God was the first artist," says Ferrell. "I just try to share a little bit of that beauty with others to take it in themselves." Herman Ferrell was born and raised in Hammond, Louisiana, where he spent his childhood honing his artistic abilities and admiring the wooden shrimp boats that cruised the coastal waters. As Ferrell and his talents matured, he began to cultivate a reputation as an outstanding southern artist and became famous for his signature shrimp boat art.
