Not been able to throw myself into my personal work as much as i'd like as of late so I set myself the challenge of doing a picture in just one hour. I managed to complete this in just under.
Inspired by watching a documentary showing that primates have now been recorded using a number of tools I imagined what they'd be up to in the future if we left them well alone. It was tempting to put the ruins of our civilisation amidst the trees in the background but it became a little too distracting and interrupted the serenity of the scene.
Having learned of the brutality chimps are capable of when hunting or patrolling their territory, the fact that we
have always been a pretty temperamental species is hardly a surprise.
Put it this way, they don't just eat bananas.
Beautiful design work Nick. I especially like the eerie looking eye created by the branches that the ape stands in.
