Study these paintings by Carlos San Millan. They portray a dark room with a door or window providing a source of light. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to take reference photos of room interiors that could be used for painting. See my examples at the bottom of the page.

Here are samples of interior photos with a door or window as the source of light. They could be used as reference photos for paintings. If you wish to share your photos with others in my program, post them on our Artist's Network FB page. Here are some photos I took for the challenge:
Below is an example of an interior reference photo, and then my abstract-ish interpretation of it as a painting.
