Matisse Inspiration Shapes

Easy Matisse Art Project for Kids: 3 Techniques

Inspired by the creativity of Matisse, we’ve developed three different ways you can explore color, shape and style, meaning this project can be used for any age, ability or setting. We’ve created some easy, ready-made shapes for you that can be cut out to create a collage or make stencils, but we’ve also included an inspiration page to encourage older children to draw freely and create their own shapes. Technique 1: Cutout Collage Technique 2: Simple Stenciling Technique 3: Experimental: Playing with colour and positive/negative space
