Present

This was done for day 1 of the 30 in 30 challenge . Leslie Saeta's Challenge 30 paintings in 30 days http://lesliesaeta.blogspot.ca/. She had also done a present and I thought that was a perfect subject matter to begin. The purpose for me is to simplify. Doing as many painting in such a short time span forces you to keeping it as simple as possible.

All the paintings will be available at my website http://dayledodwellfineart.weebly.com/30-in-30.html
