dome alone

islamic center of davis

I’ve been meaning to draw this building for a while, the Islamic Center of Davis; an unusual structure in this town, as it is painted in a very bright sky blue, and it features a striking dome above the entrance (but not actually part of the main building). It was built in 2006. Taking advantage of a sunny Friday lunchtime I cycled up Russell and sketched it. You can see the possibly storm-driven clouds passing in the background. We’ve had some winter weather lately.

      I don’t know, the exterior is more interesting to me, because of the sky blue in the sunshine, but I chickened out on the rest of the building, because there are lots of little patterned windows!
