Simplified line drawing based on a photo I took several years ago, done with Pen & Ink app on an iPad. I wanted to scale this down and move the photographer into a more spacious rectangle, but Pen & Ink doesn't work yet with iOS8, which I upgraded my iPad Air to too soon, alas. However, apart from that limitation this is such a ... how shall I put it ... a modest effort that I may just zap it away in a few days.
(Meanwhile I can use my iPad Mini 2, which fortunately still uses iOS7, until the problems with iOS8 get worked out by Apple and its app developers. I wish Apple didn't rely on their early adapter users to be beta testers to find the mistakes that still need fixing. But then Microsoft does the same thing with Windows -- and also Slate, which I just read is finally fairly good in its 3rd version.)
I keep whining about how all my photos have power lines cutting through them. Decided to focus my attention on the lines themselves. I will probably make a public pool for these at some point.
I drew a Rubik's Cube for this week's Illustration Friday topic 'surrender'.

"I'll show you, mother," said Lina; and, with a deep blush on her face, she drew her slate carefully out of her bag. "The mistress was pleased with it, and told me I might show it to you."
Lina's slate had on it a really spirited little sketch of two rabbits, and Mrs. Wolf was both surprised and delighted.
"Did you do this, Lina?" she asked, as she drew the little artist to her.
"I couldn't think of anything to write," said Lina shyly; "I never can; so I drew the rabbits instead."
"My darling," said her mother earnestly, "if you work hard you might one day be a great artist—I feel sure of it."
Mrs. Wolf's words came true in after years. Lina is now a well-known painter, and honors not a few have fallen to her share.
