first sketches after moving to a new part of Davis

I recently moved from south Davis to north Davis, which means my orientation is all over the place (and my disorganization has meant less sketching, but this has thankfully been remedied). I got out a week or so ago to explore my new neighbourhood and came upon this unusual building, part of the Our Faith Lutheran Church on Oak Avenue. It has a weird lookout poking out of the roof like a periscope. There is another smaller outhouse with a similar shape in the grounds but I don’t know what they are for. Further down the street, I drew the main church building itself, which has a big blue window, looking across the street at the Davis High School football field (whose football team are called the Blue Devils, funnily enough).

For those of you who like seeing the sketchbook (Watercolour Moleskine, nearly finished)…
