Hello. The Hometalk website has many great ideas. Go to Hometalk.com and in the search box type in “wood art“ to see what types of art our Hometalk contributors have created. Then go back to the search box and type in “glass art“ and again you will see a variety of artwork done in glass. Do the same for each type of material you would like to use. I know this will get your creative juices flowing. Good luck!
Have you looked at pinterest?

I can loose hours looking around there and save many ideas for future consideration!
Enjoy your creative adventures...hope you'll share some creative projects with us here on Hometalk!

How about cutting up postcards or magazines into pieces of mostly one color each, and some that could be a jumble of colors? Make a mosaic of nearly anything that would make tourists think of a place in Europe or Luxembourg specifically. Try to work in words of one or more languages into your picture.
Or start with a cheap print of a local or European artist, but add cutouts of things like a cow coming out from a cloud, or the Eiffel Tower standing in a flower garden. ☺️
