Henri Matisse described his cut-out art creations as ‘drawing with scissors’. Year 1 had lots of fun exploring this technique, and the practical skill of collage, in their art lesson this week. We didn’t use a pen, pencil, or paintbrush, instead a pair of scissors was our drawing tool. Like Matisse, year 1 were inspired by nature and colour in the shapes they formed.
Take a look at our wonderful art in the pictures below.
