In this project we combine making unique papers to collage and "drawing with scissors" to create an expressive piece of art. Matisse became so ill later in his life that he was bedridden. He was confined to his bed and required to use a wheelchair which made him unable to paint and create art just like he had always done. He was able to find a new way to express creative work through "paper cut-outs". Matisse overcame adversity and found a new way to express himself. Maybe when you are sad or something isn't going the way you expected, you too can find a different way to see, feel, or do in that situation. Maybe you too can over come those moments in life with flexibility and grace and create something beautiful too!
