Theme of assignment: The remains of summer days

Ideas on the process (brainstorming)

Creative interpreting more important then rules, free spirit of summer - ignore rules if necessary, don’t play by the rules but contrast with rules being there – boxed up summer, accepting – resisting(?), need contrast, light and dark, chiaroscuro, also need to show maturing, fading, quieter, turned down, plane, subtle, so black and white, cold tone – faded colours when they just visible is even better, strong light, contained so possibly frame within the frame (wine box again?), indoors, subject: flowers, starfish, poppy, something to show lightness – bright tones, highlights – overexposed(?), some dark places at the same time – contrasting.
