"So putting them out of our minds, let's get started." She rolled her neck and centered herself and then she wrote the word 'Graffiti' on the board.

"We've been focusing on art this term and how charms can be an art medium used by us to create different types of artwork. Today, we're going to focus our efforts on Graffiti. So, what do you know about Graffiti? Where is it typically found? How is it typically made?" She looked around the room and then perched on her desk, waiting for the answers to roll in.

Violet was very sure by now that the vines were probably much more than just a nuisance, but, since class was starting soon after she arrived, she didn't see that she could do much more at the moment than pick a seat as far away from them as possible.

So--graffiti. Violet had known about the spray paint herself--she'd actually seen some boys using it in the ratty Muggle neighborhood her father had been living in that year she visited him in New York. But...how did wizards make graffiti? Did they make it? Of course, they must--in fact, she'd read in the paper about some Neo-Alliance graffiti incidents in Diagon Alley a few years ago. That thought sent a chill to her stomach, so she returned her mind to the class.''

"Trains," Violet volunteered. "People spray graffiti and artwork on the cars of trains, and then you can look at it while you're having to wait at a crossing." Violet had actually thought it was rather nice to have something to do while waiting for a train to go by, and remembered that some of the train graffiti she'd seen was pretty good. "Professor," she added, "I know about spray paint and such, but are there spells to create graffiti?"
