January's Nibblefest Art Contest Theme: 'Five Random Things"




Our next round of the Nibblefest Art Contest begins in 
two weeks! 
(on the 20th)


The theme for January is  
"Five Random Things" (in one painting):


"Five": (noun) definition: A number that is one more than four....
"Random": (adjective) definition: Lacking a definite plan, purpose, or pattern; haphazard....
 "Things" (noun, plural) definitionAn object, fact, affair, circumstance, or concept considered as being a separate entity....



Our challenge this month is to incorporate at least five seemingly unrelated items 
 into a single composition.



And so,
without further ado,
 (and with sincere apologies to Julie Andrews)...,


Maria Von Trapp, in 'The Sound of Music'


 ...in order to introduce this month's theme, 
we present:


"My Five Random Things"
