Hands-On Art, Class #2, Period 1
Once everyone had shown up to class, Lily smiled and said, "Glad to see you decided to come back. And really quick, we have a new TA as of today, so if you need help or if I'm too scary, you can always ask Savannah." Because, of course, Lily was terrifying.
"Today's another easy week, sort of. We're going to be talking about different mediums that artists use," she said, passing out a handout listing the different types. "Every different type of medium will give you a different look or effect. People tend to pick a favorite, something they like to use more than the others. You might like to do landscapes and find that oil paints work better for them, or that pastels give them more of the look they want, or maybe they just want to draw in pencil. It's all up to the artist.
"So what we're doing today is experimenting. I've got a bunch ofmoddable supplies up here. You want oil paints, watercolors, charcoals, pencils, we've got it, along with some different materials to work on. I've got paper and some smaller canvases to work off of. Just don't use school property or your fellow students. That'll be a detention and I'd like to not give those out," she said. "We've got a wide range of artists here, so if you're new to this stuff, just find something that looks interesting and try it. If you're not new, use something you don't usually work with, or something you'd like to try. I don't even care what it is you paint or draw. If you need inspiration, look at your desk and draw that. We're just thinking outside the box a little and getting to know what you have to work with. And I totes don't care if you talk while you work, as long as you work." She paused, looking a little confused. "I have no idea where I picked up that word."
