Geoff and the death of painting

Does this sketch rocketh the cocketh?

INT. CLASSROOM – DAY

Stood at his easel, GEOFF applies a thoughtful daub to his canvas. He steps back and takes it in, obviously pleased with himself.

Breezing around the studio, a TUTOR in a beret stops to examine Geoff’s work. Geoff waits expectantly while he makes his appraisal.

The Tutor CLAPS.

TUTOR
Okay everyone, down with your brushes, Geoff just killed art.

GEOFF
What?

TUTOR
You heard me. It’s all over, people! Art is dead!

GEOFF
But….

STUDENT #1
F**k!

The students begin smashing up their easels and punching holes through canvases.

One woman squeezes a tube of paint into her mouth - tears streaming.

A man takes a mallet to a bowl of fruit, smashing it to smithereens.

The life model sticks a scalpel in her naked belly and jerks it upward, hari-kari fashion.

STUDENT #2
Thanks a lot, Geoff!

STUDENT #3
Murderer!

STUDENT #4
Yeah, you dick!

The students file out of the studio, each taking turns to gob on Geoff as they go.

Left alone, Geoff stands rooted, blood pooling at his feet.

It rocked my cock. And I don't even have one.
Loved it.

Thank you very much, sir.

Actually, this is very good although I thought it could have ended a couple of lines earlier when the life model committed hari-kari or even putting the students remarks prior to the scene of general mayhem.

But whatever way I've tried to rearrange your sketch it makes little difference because it is still a damn good piece of writing.

I thought about ending it a little earlier too, but I'm a sucker for ending on a dumbstruck straight man.

Thanks for your feedback, buddy.

Loved it! This bit, in particular, is hilarious:

One woman squeezes a tube of paint into her mouth - tears streaming.

I thought it was good.

I do a bit of artistic dabbling and I do love the pretentiousness of it all.

Thanks a lot, guys, much appreciated.

Really liked it, it leaves me with a feeling of really wanting to know what he painted.

One idea? How about if the rest of the class had done loads of crap modern art real Turner prize rubbish and he has actually produced some sort of fine art masterpiece.

Good sketch although the art class is a classic for the pullback to reveal.

You can't see what he painted.

It's like Monty Pythons killing joke.

I had figured on keeping Geoff's effort a secret but that is a nice idea for a reveal, Dale.
