Painting with Scissors

The painter Henri Matisse was once too ill to paint. So he developed a method of  "painting" with scissors - cutting things out and sticking, rather than painting.
Miss Garratt reports:

"Here are 4G 'Painting with Scissors' in the style of Henri Matisse. 

The children used cool and warm colours to cut out positive and negative free form shapes. 


They excelled in their team work...
... and it was a real pleasure to watch them get creative. "
