painting interpretations
Hi, I want to paint, and I really want to challenge myself, but I need ideas. PLEASE HELP
My self assignment:
look up a famous painting (any subject except still life) and any time period. I will interpret the painting as a still life.
For example, a painting of doves by pablo picasso can be interpreted as hands maybe? I dont know, I just need a really good idea. Please help.

Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos?
A painting by Edvard Munch is probably the most famous and easy to draw. Or do an interpretation of the famous "Campbell soup can" by andy warhol.

The drastic use of color has been used to depict the mood of the subject, with greens and intense reds contributing to a sense of chaos and disorder, which helps to reinforce the expression of the figure. The lone emaciated figure stands on a bridge clutching his ears, his eyes and mouth open in a wide scream of fear, anguish and confusion. The green hue of the character's face and his grey clothing is symbolic of sickness and death in regards to his psychotic mental state. The red sky creates a sense of alarm, and highlights the intensity of the character's experience.
