let them eat soup

south hall uc davis

A lunchtime sketch, after a bowl of soup. It’s that lovely Thai soup I used to eat all the time for a few years, that disappeared from campus for over a year but came back late 2010. It’s really good soup. I used to have to choose – eat soup, or sketch, because I never had time to do both. On this day, though, I made time. Anyway…this is South Hall, one of two such Halls (the other is North Hall, just to the north). It’s an old building, having been on UC Davis for a long time. (Hey, that’s so informative Pete! Well what do you expect, I spent my lunchtime eating soup, not reading local history). I didn’t have time to draw the other half of it though. Maybe some other time. (And I meant to leave the trees blank. In fact the soup told me to…)

    Hi Pete,

    I am the graphics designer for the SRRC (inside South Hall); I am currently working on the Center’s brochure. I ran upon this piece and wanted to ask if I may have your permission to possibly use this — put it on SRRC’s brochure, webpage or even t-shirt. I think it’s a great piece.

    If I cannot use it, I completely understand. Thank you.
