fandomhigh | Studio Art | January 10th

As each student enters the room they are directed to pick up a handout and take a seat.

"Okay kids, welcome to Studio Art. I'm Autolycus ~~the King of Thieves~~, your new Art Professor.

"Judging by some of the stories I've been hearing about your last art teacher, this subject was considered a bit of joke. I'm here to tell you that, that's no longer the case. Anyone who signed up for this subject expecting an easy A, is advised to either change their minds or to come see me after class to sign their drop slip.

"Now that that's over and done with, I'll tell you what you signed up for. Each week in this period we'll be discussing some of the theory behind how to make, for lack of a better term, 'Good Art'. You'll have an opportunity to put this information into practice during our studio sessions as well as a number of small, out of class assignments, but more about that on Friday.

"You have two tasks today. One, introduce yourself to your fellow classmates, tell us a little bit about yourself and why you decided to take this subject. Two, I would like a list of all media that you have either have proficiency in, or would like to learn, and for the love of the gods, please mark which is which.

"Unlike your classmates in History of Art, you don't have an actual homework assignment, however I would like you to do some reading on basic design principles."

[ooc: Here's the deal. Just posting "x signs in and listens to lecture." will not get you participation credits. Interact. Discuss the subject with Auto, or your fellow students. ~~Have mildly wacky hijinks.~~ You'll basically have until Thursday night/Friday morning to do so.]

Jaye takes the time to doodle a large number of stick figures on a piece of notebook paper. She's not going to explain that it's an artistic, non-anatomically correct recreation of the naked party. "Tah dah!" she says, because this is totally her medium.
