Art 101 - Wednesday, 9/2 - Fourth Period

If anyone asked why an art class was being done in the Danger Shop, it would be hard to say if Nick would have an answer. At least, an answer he could give.

All the same, the room was set up in the style of a very pretty, somewhat rustic art studio with lots of windows and many easels and supplies stacked in the corner. There were desks, but only so many as the students might need and they took up a relatively small section of the studio that seemed to have a chalkboard added to it.

"Good afternoon, class," he greeted them as they walked in, a copy of the syllabus on every desk, "and welcome to Art 101. As the description on the class said, we will be studying art history... but we will also be applying those lessons in our own self-expression and the expansion of our understanding of what art is as well as what it has been in various times and cultures."

He half-sat on the desk, a little slouchy but still professional.

"Today, however, we start with introductions, of course, and a bit of free expression."

"I have never attempted any sort of artwork before," Raven said.

"Art...is very emotional, is it not?" Raven asked.

"Where I am from, the people live without true passion," Raven said. "Art is appreciated for its beauty, but it often seems to be missing...something."

"I am new to experiencing emotions of my own," Raven said. "But I will try. Perhaps if you give me an idea to work with...?"

"I cannot be certain," Raven said. "I have not seen much art outside Azarath. I have seen pictures and replicates of older styles of art -- classical, the Renaissance. They seem warmer somehow."

"I would appreciate that," Raven said. "I also have a fondness for -- I believe it is called Pre-Raphaelite art."
