Henri  Matisse Drawing With Scissors
油
Even though Henri was a great painter, we are going to save his paintings until 3 rd  grade and look at his  cutouts  pictures  instead.
When Henri was 83 he made this paper cutout picture. Do you know what it is supposed to be?
A Snail!
When Henri was an old man he made  cutout  pictures.  Since he was sick so often he had to spend lots of time in bed.  It was easier to cut out pictures than use a  paint brush !
He called his new way of painting, Drawing with Scissors. Most of his cutouts are  free-form .  In  free-form  art, the shapes are irregular and not geometric.
Heres how Henri made his cutouts: First his assistants painted sheets of paper. Then Henri cut out shapes. Henri would change the way they were  arranged  on the paper. The last step was to  paste  the cutouts down on paper.
Once Henri made 20 cutout pictures for a book called Jazz.  Here are some pictures from Jazz.
Matisse always tried to  layer  the pieces he cut out.  Layer  means placing one piece over another.

Even though Henri made most of his cutouts from bed, he used his  memory  to get his ideas.
Henri was old and sick, but he kept on working.  His daughter said that Henri worked right up to the day he died.  People say some of his last cutout pictures are his greatest.  Do you agree? Icarus
