1st Grade Matisse Collages

      1st Graders had a lot of fun during this project. We took a look at the artist Henri Matisse, and focused on his cut-out artwork.

Our class learned about collage, and had a blast using this technique to create some beautiful Matisse inspired masterpieces.

What a creative collage! Some of these organic shapes look like something Matisse would have created!

Do you see any familiar shapes?

Look at all those geometric shapes!

Here is a little video of Henri Matisse putting together one of his collages!
