I agree with Art2 and erilaz, this would be a fun topic to sink our teeth into.
A few more suggestions:
"Tall Tale"
"It came from outer space...."
"Heaven and Hell"
"Car Chase"
“Alter Ego”
“So that solves the mystery of the…”
“The Village Idiot”
“Day of the Dead”
trompe l’oeil
“A French term literally meaning “trick the eye.” Sometimes called illusionism, it’s a style of painting which gives the appearance of three-dimensional, or photographic realism. It flourished from the Renaissance onward. The discovery of linear perspective in fifteenth-century Italy and advancements in the science of optics in the seventeenth-century Netherlands enabled artists to render object and spaces with eye-fooling exactitude. Both playful and intellectually serious, trompe artists toy with spectators’ seeing to raise questions about the nature of art and perception.”

Everyone chooses his/her own pic and adds some tricks,
and after some time (some days before the voting)
everyone edits his/her post and adds the original picture.
and…
“and now for something completely different…” (Code Nothing) this would be great
or “Nobody expects the spanish inquisition!”
I’d like to do a week-long series of related topics as well, so people can mull over ideas for the next day while doing the first one:

Fundamentals related:
Analogous color
warm/cool
symmetry
gesture drawing
synaesthesia (a hard one, i know)
fundamentals week:
A still life: (an accident waiting to happen) or (white objects) <- the white objects one is tricky because nothing is realy white. Everything picks up reflected color.
Figurative Drawing: (focus on anitomical detail and accuracy.)
Color Theory: The same Illustration with 2 different color schemes that change the meaning, or mood of the piece.
Build the shot: Compose a scene from your favorate book, into a single illustration of how you would like to see it on screen. focus on lighting and composition. (Include a short reference from the book describing the scene.)
Shadow study: Use a single light source and multiple objects. arrange the objects so that they cast shadows over one another. The focus in this sketch is to show the difference between form shadows (a shadow that is soft and is on the “dark” side of the object. like the moon) and a Cast Shadow (a shadow that is sharp, and came “from” an object and is now laying cast accross another one.)
Drapery study: kinda self explanitory. Do a still life of a sheet hanging from something. or crumpled. Just give it interesting folds. For an advanced study use a model to wear the drapery. but emphisize the cloth, not the model.
Portraiture: It can be styalised, or realistic. Just emphisize a likeness of the model. (celebrities may be best, or include photos of models so we will know if they were successfull or not)
Heres some phrases:
Dentist from hell
“Slow Knockout”
“Hidden brief case”
My Teeth
Weird ones huh
“inspired by words”
-I Would REALLY like to do a topic that is " Illustrate a scene from your favorite peice of literature of music"
Other topics that might be cool:
“cats”
“at the zoo”
“in dreams”
“the other side of the fence”
“elephants on parade”
“my my my…”
“revolution”
“Technology Bytes”
“all the pretty horses”
“we are family”
“the…”
“ouch!”
“I wish…”
