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."

"Savannah Levine, senior, and I've been an artist since I could hold a pencil or a paint brush."

Savannah went immediately for the sculpting materials. This was something she didn't do often, so she was excited about working with clay again.

"My name is Raven," she said quietly, "though I am also called Rachel Roth. I am a sophomore. I do not have any true experience with art, but I thought it would be good to expand my knowledge."

Raven really didn't have the faintest idea what to do. She took a sketchbook and colored pencils and tried to draw. Whatever it was, it was very abstract.

Raven listened attentively, but she was also curious about the longing she was picking up from Professor Chevalier.

"Jack Priest, senior, and while I've been taught to sketch most of my experience is as a patron."

Jack took a sketchbook and some charcoals. He was just doodling, really, but the girl in the corner of the pad looked more and more like Emma Frost the more he worked at the drawing.

"Griffin O'Conner, junior. I just like to draw," he shrugged, not knowing how to describe it as experience. "I was never trained, but it's something I do." A lot.

"I will answer to either, but my given name is Raven," she said. "I prefer that name." She studied Nick, trying to get a feel for him.

Admittedly, it was rather nice to have a teacher for something that was an enjoyable act. Maybe he'd fix that water problem.

"I tend to draw what I see," Griff replied. "It's never an exact replica, but I don't know if I want them to be."
