Scarab makes some good points there. It also ties in with my suggestion that you should try working to someone else's ideas for a while. If nothing else, it will teach you some discipline in your working methods. Have you thought about doing something similar to ziggie? He makes greeting cards, "Get Well" cards, I believe, for his local Children's Hospital. Sounds like an absolute goldmine for ideas to explore. You can go for full-on funny (my own choice, given the subject), sweet or dramatic. Or a combination. It's a win-win situation. Just look at ziggie's renders for ideas. Not every picture has to be a great work of art, but (IMO) you should at least be making your viewers react in some way, else why even bother? So, make 'em laugh/cry/think/angry/sad/whatever it takes. By the way - and this is a completely serious comment - have you considered making outright violent and/or pornographic images? They may be a million miles away from the things you usually create, but they may help to open the floodgates. My suggestion for these kinda images is (and this is just my opinion, for what it's worth), look for the emotion in either type of image. Make them human.
