Hercules for my male subject and for my female subject, I can't decide just yet. Nudes of course.

I wouldn't even let you bid. For you WW, I would paint an original. Either Elvis or Dogs Playing Poker. Your choice. And, it would be my gift to you because I know that you would display it in a prominent place in your home, invite all the news crews in and do your very best to publicize far and wide my amazing fairy given gift.
I surely don't hanker for greatness....I would be more than happy if the good fairy helped me to paint something like this in words....a word picture...;))
Yes Didge.....it is exquisite......and indeed it would require enormous skill.....umm and there's the good fairy Didge has provided....so no worries;))
Shame on you. You left out literature which may be the most profound of them all. I would write a book like "The epic of -O-uknow". Just kidding ;)

It's gotta be better than the one I'm planning to write: "Didge's Gospel". There's enough material already to get it started but I don't feel like religion-bashing any more. There's a fine line between humour and being offensive.
I am into fantasy these days...so I want to paint something in the style of Arthur Rackham, Kay Neilsen, Edmund Dulac...or this one, THE FALLING LEAF, done by Sulamith Wülfing (1901-1989).
Beautiful indeed and not a little synchronicity involved. Why? Yesterday I was out walking one a street I've often walked before and, in the distance I saw a tree (that I have often seen before). But I noticed that through the gaps in the leaves I could see the wall of a house, sitting on the slope behind it. And the patches of colour from that wall more-or-less created the shape of a woman in the tree. So I started thinking in terms of woodland spirits and the like. It made me realise how easy it would be to think it was an actual being. And then, 24 hours later, you posted this. I'm gonna walk back that way today and see if it really WAS just an optical illusion or if there's somebody mysterious waiting for me.
