Help with ideas!!!

My art gcse theme is old and new. For my final piece I have absolutely no idea what to do but I know I want to do an acrylic painting. I am so stuck, any ideas please that will not be too complicated or hard to paint. Please reply asap because I should already have an idea and have strarted thumbnails. Any ideas will be helpful!

Thanks for the quick reply however my teacher has said not to paint people as this links more with the theme of portraiture.

idk if you have an idea yet but instead of picking one specific idea now for your final piece, why dont you try brainstorming several ideas related to this theme and work on and develop a couple of them throughout the project/theme before picking your best ideas/designs/skills for your final piece. whatever you decide on tho, it should definitely have links to whatever you've been doing throughout the project/them so that your work flows really well, and try to do something with an interesting meaning behind it, even if it is just something personal to you, so that you can do some really good in-depth analysis and wow the examiners for those higher grades. hope that helps!
