I'm a man of wealth and taste...
Appearance: Giovanni has curly dark hair, which is constantly crying out for a trim and a brush. His skin has a Mediterranean tone, his eyes are a deep chocolate brown.
Although he’s quite tall, he isn’t particularly skinny, nor very muscular. He’s just…average. He’s slim, but not excessively so. He looks much younger than he actually is, more like eighteen than twenty-eight. When he arrived at the school, most people thought he was a late-transferring student. He’s grown up a little since then, but he still has problems making people realise that he actually is old enough to teach.
His wardrobe is hardly revolutionary; mostly he wears plain shirts and black trousers. Still, he has an odd way of wearing it that makes it look rather scruffy. It may have something to do with the paint he inevitably splashes on it, or the way it’s always coupled with messy hair, dark-ringed eyes and three day’s worth of stubble. Whatever the reason, within five minutes of entering a classroom he looks like he’s been there for five years without changing. On him, it looks fine.
Personality: Technically, Gio is bisexual, but his first love is and always will be art. At the age of twenty-six, he’s only ever kissed and has had a grand total of two girlfriends and one boyfriend. In his free time, he will always be found painting. In his opinion, it’s the nearest thing to being God it’s possible to be. He came to teaching because he wants to pass that gift on to the next generation, and also because he wanted to be able to paint all the time but thinks that auctions devalue art.
If you can tear him away from his canvas, Gio will almost always give you a polite smile and tell you nothing at all. He’s really rather shy and awkward. Unless you mention a few key topics, those being predominantly art and religion. He’s a committed atheist, and will discuss this for hours with someone else, and the same with art.
One thing he’ll never do is shout or…god forbid…hit someone. Essentially, he’s a very peaceful person, the one exception being if you damage one of his pictures. He’ll never forgive you. He broke someone’s jaw once for splashing black paint on an oil painting.
He stays up until the early hours of the morning regularly, and has been known to spend forty-eight hours non-stop drawing. He may well be the worst role model it’s possible for young people to have. However, he’s a bloody good teacher. His students almost all leave his classes able to draw a portrait that looks like its subject, for example.

Dreams:None, really. As long as he can always paint, he’s happy to go with the flow.

I've been around for a long, long year...
History: Giovanni was born in Venice to Gabriel and Maria Sentore, neither of whom were particularly artistic. It’s a mystery as to where he got his talent, but his parents used to say he was born holding a paintbrush. He went through school in a sort of drawing-induced daze, and came out with art, English and Italian qualifications and not much else.
He moved to London at the age of eighteen, where he managed to pass the entrance exams for St Martin’s College. On his art course, his first girlfriend, Rosie Tanner, ‘subtly’ flirted with him until they got together (subtle in this case coming only a little below dancing around in front of him naked with a sign saying ‘you are hot’) However, when he left college, they broke up.
He sold paintings for a while, but he didn’t enjoy it. It gave him enough to live on and some, but he didn’t like drawing because he had to. He lived like that until he was twenty-three, upon which he threw in the towel, broke up with his boyfriend James Grant and moved to Yorkshire. With no income, he couldn’t keep up the lifestyle for long, spending all his money on art materials and, in short, conforming to the ‘starving artist’ stereotype.
He moved back to London, where he met fellow artist Lucy Straker at an art gallery. He took up tutoring jobs, teaching young children the basics of art. Eventually, after Lucy left him and his funds began to dry up again, he decided he needed a constant job. So he went looking for teaching jobs aged 25.
And the rest, as they say, is history. Gio moved in at Florence, where he lives for most of the year in a room packed with canvases. He doesn’t have much going on in his life, in fact, he doesn’t really have much of a life. But he’s pretty sure he’s found what he needs to do.
Family: Mother: Maria Sentore, Father: Gabriel Sentore
