 Leslie Saeta had done some ornaments and I loved the idea.

Stripes with Fries

Day 9 of the 30 in 30

I had finally got caught up when this one didn't work right off the bat. 

Finished it off on day 10.

It is a scene in Mahoney Bay Nova Scotia and I was hungry.

Buds

Day 8 of the 30 in 30

When I was painting this I was remembering John Singer Sargent or at lease the feel.

They are in long grass not a garden and in play clothes and not dressed up.

Chris Cross

Day 7 of the 30 in 30

Walking my dog down by the waterfront with the gang. All going in different diretions, some wanting to play or some wanting treats and  one just a little nervous.

Ice Cream

Why I think of George Seurat I don't know but that was the inspiration for this painting.

Holy Mackerel

Day 4 in the 30 in 30.

The Mackerel has been running and the fishermen have been taking them in. On my dog walks there has been an increase of people fishing off the pier over the last 2 years. It has become quite the social  activity with families and all ages and shapes and sizes.

Reveal

Day 2 of the 30 in 30.

With the idea of keeping it simple The fruit are revealed from the tissue. I always liked how when you get expensive fruit it is wrapped like a present. I was also thinking how the pears seem to be calling the apple out.

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
