Station Square- Casual Art

[Xenomina]

On a street adjoining to the actual square of Station Square, a young woman, specifically a frog anthro, was standing on a scaffold. Loud music blaring from her headphones, she was working on a seascape mural for the seafood restaurant paying her. Banging her head, she finished the touches on a dolphin jumping out of a sapphire sea. Taking a moment to look her work over, she smiled, satisfied with her days work.

"Finally," Jade said, putting her paint down and sitting on the scaffold. "Now all I have to do is the fishing boat details, but that can't wait until tomarrow."

[Sipp]

Bartleby entered Station Square, flanked by Sonia and Bartleby. Though he was mostly here for Sonia's sake, he was always on the scope for new... talent.

Which led him to stop and examine the frog's work.

"Hm."

[Xenomina]

The froggy chick wasn't paying attention as he walked up, for one of the workers of the restaurant came out with a plate of fiery-hot fish taco's, with a side of seasoned curly fries. Happy as can bee, Jade went and greeted the food bringer, taking her meal and heading back to her perch. It was then that she noticed the two.

"Oh! Heya!" She smiled at the two, getting back on the scaffold and sitting down to eat her meal.

"Aww, I love how the water is all like sparkly! I just love dolphins too." Sonia wasn't much of an artiest, but she did love cute things, and this qualifies. She held onto Bartleby as she eyed at the painting. "Don't you think so, guys?"

"Hmm...alluring." Tanaka shrugged, waiting behind the two.

[Xenomina]

Well, the man's was slighty positive, if not sarcastic. "Thanks," she said between bites of her taco. "I'm painting this mural for the seafood restaurant. Their fish taco's rule!" She grinned with some food in her mouth, before scarfing down the rest of the taco's.

[Wolivier]

Josie-Jo: A bird flew by, looking over and stopping dead in her tracks. "Fish taco?!" she gasped, hopping over to the frog. She looked passed the food to admire the mural. "Oooooh!" she gasped, a smile curving on her beak. "pretty! Pretty!" She reached out as though to touch it but pulled back when she remembered that touching pretty pictures was against the rules. The lady at the museum told her so.

Instead, she sat back, wide eyes taking in every speck of detail. "Did you do this all by yourself, huh?" she suddenly whistled, attention turning to Jade. "With crayons???"

[Sipp]

"Indeed... very nice. Sonia, darling, perhaps you would like something painted by this young lady? Hmm..."

He leaned in to examine the frog a little, "Any other... talents.. my dear?"

[Xenomina]

jade grinned and set down her food. "First of all, I use paint, not crayons. I've been working on this for about 4, 5 weeks now, and I'm almost done." She smiled to the little bird and went on to answer the male's question. "Second of all, I could probably kick your butt without using my hands directly...but that's just bragging." She chuckled a little "I'm just kidding, dude. I do photography, but only as a hobby."

[AnT]

A frownish smile made straight for the frog. "Heh, you better be kidding." She went back to snuggling the mink. "Sure, sugar-boo! Hey, you do flower fields?"

[Wolivier]

Josie-Jo: Josie gaped. Not using crayons?! She blinked at the picture and hardely believed that such a thing could be made without the use of the colorful, vibrant abundant wax sticks known as crayons. 'She must be pretty amazing then!' she finally decided, grinning wide.

At the mention of flower fields, she looked down at her red button that Cosmo had given her. She had a job to do! She took out a perfect, red rose and cried, "You should go to Cosmo's Flower Place! It's BEAUTIFUL!! She makes perfect perfect, good good flowers like these!" She sniffed the rose herself and grinned ear to ear (like birds had any ears) to show that she much enjoyed the scent.

Right after this, she went back to studying the mural.

[Sipp]

Bartleby's interest seemed to wane a little, but he nodded and watched nonetheless. "Very well... commission away, Sonia."

His gaze trailed to the hyper little girl. "Hm... Flower shop, you say?"

[Xenomina]

Jade scratched her head. "I normally do whatever the client asks me to do, within reason." She rolled her eyes. "This one jerk wanted me to do his entire, humongous house in complex murals he designed himself in a 5 week period. Needless to say, I turned him down. That kind a' job would take 3 months, at least!"

[Wolivier]

Josie-Jo: Josie blinked at Bartleby. She held up the flower to offer him a sniff. "Yes, Cosmo's Flower Shop! She makes beautiful flowers!"

[AnT]

"Oh come on! I like just wanted a painting for a flower field, not paint my entire flower garden! I don't even like to do my garden...I let the servants do that."

[Xenomina]

"Tell me about it. A Brown Thumb seems to run in my family, neither my mom nor I can keep a plant alive for over 24 hours." She laughed, a little nervous. "Well, if you want me to do a flower field, I can do that." She rustled through the pockets of her paint-splattered work jeans. "But I need to finish this job first. I think I have...one, maybe two days worth of painting left." She pulled out a business card, handing it to the potential female customer. "Call me when you know for sure you wanna hire me."

[Sipp]

Bartleby was growing weary, but he never let it show, instead flashing the young girl a dazzling smile, sniffing the flower with a hint of poshness. "Hmm.. very nice..." he made a mental note to visit at some point. Flowers were wonderful gifts, after all.

He cast an idle eye over towards Sonia, who was talking to the artist. There was still his 'guest of honour' later tonight to consider...

[Wolivier]

Josie-Jo: Josie smiled when he smelled the flower. Then she turned her attention back to the frog. "You should paint for Cosmo. she's a very nice person! Hey... that sounds like a good idea!"

Thus, the bird took off, fluttering down the street home so that she could make a crude, watercolor picture on colorful construction paper for Cosmo and her shop.

[AnT]

"...sure!" Sonia shrugged. She then thought up about that flower shop thing she heard the others talk about. "Hmm...flowers, huh? You know, sugar-boo, the dining room table could use a little dash of flowers; perfect for our dinner arrangement tonight."

[Xenomina]

Jade sighed and settled down to feast on her fries. She never was the girly type. In fact, the way she saw it, having a boyfriend would only bog her down. All she wanted to do at this point was hang out, paint murals and take photos, that was all. "Besides," she thought. "Like anything exciting would ever happen to me."

[Sipp]

"Hmm... perhaps so. Shall we head to the flower shop, there? Or perhaps you'd like to talk more with the young artist?"m

[Xenomina]

Jade decided to call it a day. She quickly packed her things, grabbing her unfinished fries, as well. "Here," Jade handed Sonia a business card. "This is my contact card if you ever want me for a job, c'ya!" Amd with that, Jade took off down the street.

[AnT]

Looking at the card, Sonia shrugged, "Well I guess I'm in the mood for sniffing the roses then."

[Sipp]

He offered her his arm, flashing her a charming smile. "Let us be off, then, my dear."
