Maybe I'll use "Trees" then. This is, if I'm allowed to! Thank you for being a sounding board, I'd always rather do things that everyone else would enjoy!

Yes, I have a tree I could exhibit :D . If you do go with a theme I'm not sure I could paint a picture to order, as it were, so hopefully you will decide on a subject I've already painted!!

Painting to order is a very good skill to learn - just talking generally ;) It *is* hard, but very satisfying!

yes, and artists who get commissions have to paint to order all the time, don't they! but I've a horrible feeling I'd get "painter's block" - if there is such a thing!! :D

*grin* oh yes, you do. You panic and refuse to believe you can do it. That takes up about a week. Then you dismiss it because it's impossible, and about a day after that, inspiration usually strikes!
