daisy daisy, i’m half crazy

Daisys at Silo 111423 sm

Here’s another from November, I didn’t include this in the last post because there were no autumnal trees in it. It did have a food truck parked at the Silo which I had to sketch, Daisy’s, I think they serve cakes or desserts or flowers or something. I never feel like getting dessert stuff at lunchtime so I’ve never gone to one of the dessert type food trucks. I usually eat Shah’s Halal, chicken over rice (spicy), and that’s a pretty huge meal. I had Jojo’s Hawaiian the other day, and I’m still full from it. Anyway it is December now, and I really need to go and draw some other things, I wish I were in London or somewhere, getting a bit antsy in Davis this Fall. The trees are lovely and all, but I need to go and explore. It’s tough seeing social media all the time, looking at other sketchers around the world drawing all these places I want to go to, and then also seeing loads of posts of cool places in London and thinking, I really need to go and draw that while it’s still there, while it still looks like that. I’m currently feeling like I’m too long between trips back home, even though it’s not really that long since last summer, it’s long enough for me. Made harder the past couple of days with Shane MacGowan passing, listening to old Pogues songs and pining for those stinking streets and the banks of the Thames.
