Henri Matisse, France (1869 - 1954)





The above works are from the latter part of Henri's life when he was diagnosed with cancer and then was confined to a wheelchair.




He developed his own style (don't they all) where he would cut out various organic shapes and then have his assistants place them according to his directions; can you imagine how frustrating and time-consuming it might have been at times? a little left, no 180 degrees, the BLUE ONE!!!! MERDE !

The Bees will be tackling easy Matisse cut outs.. check back soon on our little artists
