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."
[ocd up!]

She had no idea about art, she just knew what matched the drapes.
Re: Introductions
"The decor?"

He pulled away from his personal feelings to return to the point.
"You're right. Art can be simply another piece of decor. But it isn't nearly so simple as color coordination."
He gave her a faint smile, but there was just the tiniest hint of disapproval.
"Simply matching color schemes ends up looking plebeian in the long run. Matching tone, content, style, shapes, and context is much more important."

That was Cordelia in a nutshell.

"What do you think this class is about, Miss Chase?"

"How to... did you say vampire?"
Re: Introductions
"We have them. They're kind of like annoying bunnies with fangs, no matter how many you kill, there's always more popping up. And one of them is always coming up a way to end the world or send it to hell or something." She waved her pencil around a bit. "They kind of go 'poof' and turn into dust when you stake them, which is really gross if it happens to be raining out, because that ash never comes out of your clothes."
Re: Introductions
"I see. Well, as there don't seem to be any vampires here," at least not that kind, not that he minded lying, "perhaps we can focus on the class at hand?"
