The season alone can conjure up hundreds of images from family vacations at the shore and walks along the beaches to camping and canoeing, backyard barbecues, swimming pools, the Fourth of July, and just being in the great outdoors. Summertime means fun in the sun. RAL invites its members working in 2D to submit work interpreting what summer means to them. Any medium and style from traditional to abstract will be accepted for review.
