Painting is the practice of applying color to a surface (support) such as, e.g. paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer or concrete. However, when used in an artistic sense, the term "painting" means the use of this activity in combination with drawing, composition and other aesthetic considerations in order to manifest the expressive and conceptual intention of the practitioner.
Painting is used as a mode of representing, documenting and expressing all the varied intents and subjects that are as numerous as there are practitioners of the craft. Paintings can be naturalistic and representational (as in a still life or landscape painting), photographic, abstract, be loaded with narrative content, symbolism, emotion or be political in nature. A large portion of the history of painting is dominated by spiritual motifs and ideas; sites of this kind of painting range from artwork depicting mythological figures on pottery to biblical scenes rendered on the interior walls and ceiling of The Sistine Chapel to depictions of the human body itself as a spiritual subject.
Use painting ideas more than once to paint a series

There's no rule that says you can use an idea only once. On the contrary, a painting idea can be used to create a whole series. Take an old painting you like and work on variations, pushing the idea around and further e.g. different color sets, different angles, different lighting. Just look at what Monet did with his haystack paintings.
To quote that motivational book that's such a favorite of mine, Art & Fear (on page 56): "One of the best kept secrets of artmaking is that new ideas come into play far less frequently than practical ideas -- ideas that can be re-used for a thousand variations, supplying the framework for a whole body of work rather than a single piece."

5. Ask Other People for Painting Ideas
Ask other people for painting ideas, they're sure to have different ideas

Ask other people for ideas, you never know what they might come up with, and look at the work of other painters (both living and dead). Make notes of paintings that caught your attention. Create your own versions of other people's paintings (with an acknowledgment of the source) as a starting point, then push the idea further.
The Painting Ideas Machine contains a collection of ideas and will randomly generate a suggestion at the click of the button. Approach it with an open mind and give each idea some thought for where it might lead. Dismissing multiple ideas with only a moment's consideration is a loser's approach.
6. Expand Your Knowledge of Painting History
Get painting ideas from art history

Don't ignore rich heritage and sources of ideas from past centuries of painting. If you got put off art history by a college course you found boring, or think it's something too academic to be interesting, then approach the past through artist's biographies or TV documentaries and films instead. It's not the subject that's boring, it's how it's written or approached that makes it interesting (or boring). If you've never read any painting history, I'd start with Simon Schama.
