Artful Artist: Henri Matisse



The King of Color!

This week we move to the Expressionist movement...color color color!


Started with a Read Aloud of "Matisse the King of Color" by Laurence Anholt
- artists books for children series.


Changing the medium this week, we focused on Matisse's style of art called The cutouts(which is Gouache on paper, cut and pasted, on white paper).

We simply used colorful construction paper and white paper as our base.
This week, the students were encouraged to create! They had tons of fun...and were even quite serious about properly naming their artwork.

These are some of the wonderful pieces...please enjoy!
