When it comes to painting and doing artworks, the first step is always hard to take. However, we won't improve without practice! Thankfully, My Modern Met compiled a list of 60+ fun painting ideas we can try. Here are some painting ideas inspired by real life:
Your favorite coffee mug
A prickly pear cactus
Your furry friend
A tranquil lake scene
Your eye and eyebrow (try observing from real life)
A leafy tree
Your childhood home
A piece of cloth draped over a chair
Fluffy clouds
A bouquet of flowers in a vase...
Meanwhile, here's a few from their list of good painting ideas inspired by the imagination:
A person with flowers growing from their head; Create an image inspired by your favorite song
A majestic unicorn with a rainbow-colored mane; Create a self-portrait in a Cubist style
Reimagine a scene from your favorite Disney film
Imagine a dog could walk and talk like a human. What would they say and do?
