CHALLENGE ME !!!

Not posting boring theory this time.  Asking a favour of you.  My hubby will be following a tournament at his golf club all over Easter, so I will have time to myself to paint, draw and listen to music. Sheer bliss. No tv!  Anyhow, I can't think what to paint so would love you to give me some suggestions. I have most media but not inks (the dropper rotted) and am open to anything at all.  What has fired me up is Sharon Whitley's monthly challenge and although it has been hard I have enjoyed being taken out of my comfort zone. You can just give me a subject, media or post a pic on my facebook page. (there is a link on the right of this page)

Hope someone out there will help and thank you just in case ................

    I don't have a Facebook account but reckon you should have an Easter Theme .... bunnies or chicks etc?

    Warm wishes from sunny Fuerteventura :-)

      Good idea. Something Easterish it is Sue. Have a warm and sunny Easter (don't let it melt the chocolate though). Thanks for joining in xx

    Imagine you are going on holiday somewhere, paint some of the places you think you might visit and food you might eat. Other than that have you looked at the Wet Canvas reference library of images, there's always something to inspire there.

    Have fun!

      Have made a note of wet canvas but you gave me a good idea. So watch this space over the next few days. Thanks for your help. Have a Happy Easter.

    Sounds great spending some time alone... that can lead to great paintings :-) Some inspiration? Hmmm, I am quite boring with my subjects : portraits, flowers and still lives, that's about it. Don't think it is of great help, but I saw some good suggestions in the other comments :-)

    Heehee I've challenged you enough so will leave it to the others, some great suggestions here and I see you've done a couple which are both fab by the way - have got a landscape coming up for you for April's challenge - that's going to be a BIG challenge for me - I love walking in them but not very good at painting them!!!
