My Mini-Matisse
This weeks Open Ended Art theme is Henri Matisse. At first I had no idea what to do with this, so I Googled Henri Matisse. Emily and I took a look at his paper collages. I asked Emily which ones she liked the best and then printed the picture out for her. I cut out all the shapes and then gave Emily glue and the printout and let her do her thing.

After she finished her first Matisse she said “Mommy I want to do the one with the squares now” so of course we did that one too!

Aww, good job Emily!
So cool that she was so into this project!
I like your idea to print out Matisse's work and cut out his shapes for her to place on her own work.

I love the La Gerbe! She did such a great job :)
I really like you approach, and Emily did awesome. Now I am looking forward to reading a Matisse book that Adventure of Bear recommended and then making another Matisse project.
