I was wanting to practice more of the continuous line drawings, so I was flipping through my photos from the zoo this past spring and came across some pictures I took of a couple Chimpanzees playing. I thought that it would be a good step up from drawing still life objects, while a little more forgiving than a self portrait. I do like how it came out; I can definitely tell they are apes.

This morning I also stopped my rainy walk home to take a photo of a Christmas display with my favorite filter. It seems like the big Christmas displays in my neighborhood are going up earlier the typical this year.

Do you start decorating for Christmas before Thanksgiving?
