From the artist, "This man has just had a successful shrimp run and is celebrating with a bottle of wine and sporting a fresh (rare) haircut. He wanted to know what I was doing and I told him. He was so insistant on seeing the picture just then that I packed up and got the hell out of there. This was a Chenierie Caminada, just before you cross the bridge into Grand Isle."
