Matisse: Drawing with Scissors


I have always really liked the work of Matisse, after coming across his work during my A-Level course. During this time I got to see his work in the Tate Modern in London. I have always like the simplicity and the bright colours of his work.

‘The paper cut-out allows me to draw in the colour .... Instead of drawing the outline and putting the colour inside it ... I draw straight into the colour’ I really like Matisse's thinking behind this quote.

This image really made me think about the colours that I was using in my work.
