Matisse Collages by Grade 1


We read Henri's Scissors by Jeannette Winter, and learned all about Henri Matisse's paper collages.  First graders used many of Matisse's favorite shapes in their collages.


Notan Collages by Grade 5

Notan is a Japanese art style that focuses on positive and negative space.  Fifth graders created these collages by cutting interesting shapes using positive and negative space.









Abstract Prints by Grade 4

The painting Mountains and Sea by Helen Frankenthaler was our inspiration for this project.  Students "stained" their paper with tissue paper before printing their abstract design.
