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!
