This Simple Art Technique Makes STUNNING Clothes

Henri Matisse’s works offer more than meets the eye. His daring body of work spans more than five decades and made him a leading figure in modern art. As his work grew greater in scale and ambition towards the end of his life, Matisse embraced his cutout technique, which he first explored in designing costumes and scenery for the Ballets Russes in 1919. By cutting sheets of paper painted with meticulously mixed hues, Matisse “painted with scissors,” which allowed him to continue creating art despite his failing health once he reached in his early 70s.
