Matisse Artist Widget
Henri Matisse was a twentieth century French artist. His characteristic style included flat, brilliant colors and fluid lines. Later in his career, Matisse concentrated on a technique called papiers découpés (paper cutouts). Try making your own painting with Matisee-like paper cutouts:
- Choose cutouts and drag to the canvas
- See what changes you can make by clicking on the buttons below the canvas.
- Print your design.
- Have fun!
Try Action Painting Like Jackson Pollock
Jackson Pollock (1912-1956) developed a unique style of abstract expressionism. He would drip paint on his canvas in order to create his paintings. His paintings used a technique called "action painting." You can create an abstract painting by clicking on the canvas above. Move your mouse to create your own action painting.
