"Creativity takes courage" - Henri Matisse
Kindergarten and Third grade have been learning about the art of French Artist, Henri Matisse. In his early years of painting he was known as a "Fauve", the French word for wild beast. Fauve painters were known for their use of crazy, bright colors

Below are paintings and collages by Kindergarten. They are learning about secondary colors; orange, green, and purple. They discovered these colors in Henri Matisse's goldfish painting
Third grade is learning about Henri Matisse in his later years. With failing health and eyesight, Matisse began to move from painting to large scale paper cutouts. Here is our group collage installation outside of the art room based on the collage The Parakeet and the Mermaid by Henri Matisse.
