Well, your username is ***** Gardener, so why not go out in the garden and paint some of the flowers?

lol you shouldn’t paint unless you are ready. Urgh water colour painters can be so bland =P
okies well here are some ideas:
1) try AUTOMATIC painting/ drawing.. stop eating for 12 hours make yourself really tired by staying up until 4am and thennn begin drawing whatever you see in your mind… then fill it in with whatever paints you see fit.
2)If you want something a bit more practical… look up your favourite artist, look at some of his works and the reasons behind them, use them as insperation.
If you have no favourite artist, try Salvador Dali, Hes a firm favourite with many people. Also look at the history of the classical ’scream’. Try looking up types of painting into wiki, here a list of some:
Futerism
Cubeism
Surrealism
Impressionism
Abstractism
Expressionism
Dada

Try a closeup of a plate of pancakes with syrup and a glass of milk, include the fork and tablecloth and you will have a variety of textures and colors to play with.
