Upcoming Art Class...

This Saturday is booked for an oil painting class. My 6 students will let me know what type of landscape painting they want to do then. They have great fun trying to stump the teacher.

This group had a high old time with me when I was teaching out of a big box arts and crafts store. These ladies are tool and die makers. They are also sexy senior citizens. I haven't found out yet if any of them has retired from work, but I seriously don't think they ever will retire. The class was supposed to start at 6pm at the store. A couple of them was late but it wasn't no big deal since I ended up putting brand new easels together for them and they had to shop for supplies. The room was filled to capacity. The painting they were supposed to do was quite simple. I was thinking 2 hours max. The store closes at 9 pm. We were all having a grand old time painting and laughing. Time was slipping on by. We finished painting at 9pm on the nose. It was time to pack and clean up. Fortunately, one of the ladies had to use the bathroom. She was walking towards the bathroom and the manager on duty was walking towards the door. The manager said to her "who are you and what are you doing here?" One of the workers had her hand on the alarm. The manager screams, there's a class going on. I thought we were making a lot of noise, but apparently we weren't.

Supi said...

Thanks. That was the night a rabbit got lost in the store too.

stopsign said...

LOL, Have you written about the rabbit yet?

Supi said...

No, I haven't. I was asked if the rabbit ran into the classroom. Since I was teaching, I wasn't going to go look for the escaping hidden purse rabbit. Can you imagine any one who steals her purse and gets chomped by strong rabbit teeth as a surprise.

They would never try to steal another purse again.
That's funny (Thanks for telling me the story)
