Henri Matisse- Painted Paper Shape Collages

students learned about the famous modern artist, Henri Matisse, and his passion For cutting out huge organic, colorful shapes. students first made painted paper and then created their own organic shapes by experimenting with scissors.

The littles loved to paint On large pieces of art paper. They learned how to mix the primaries to get their secondaries first. Next they learned about organic shapes and made their own. Overlapping and using tons of glue seemed to be the theme of this age group, and I love it!

Cubism inspired by Pablo Picasso

Student requested portraits by me :)
