Art Student: ::whine:: I don't want to color.
Me: Then you can watch. (I pick up some color pencils and start to color his art)
AS: I like red.
Me: What item in your art do you want red?
AS: ::points:: The electric drill. (we were doing a still life of tools today)
Me: So you like jokes, huh? (he had been giving me "chatty" and "whiny" issues throughout the lesson because he wanted to tell knock knock jokes instead of doing art)
AS: Yeah.
Me: I know a joke, a Bible joke. Who in the Bible had no parents?
AS: Jesus?
Me: Nope, Joshua son of Nun!
AS: ::Promptly turns to another student and repeats the joke. They laugh. AS turns back to me and hands me another color pencil:: The hammer should be blue.
Me: Here's another. Knock knock.
AS: Who's there?
Me: Orange.
AS: Orange who?
Me: Orange you glad you came to art today?
AS: ::laughs:: Yeah. I'll finish coloring now.
Me: Go for it. (hands over the color pencils)
AS: I like art.
