Let’s paint, scrape, and snip like Matisse! In this joyful, hands-on art adventure, little artists will use squeegees to spread bright paint across cardboard—creating bold, colorful textures just like Henri Matisse’s famous cut-outs. Then, we’ll turn those painted pieces into fun, layered flower sculptures that pop right off the table!
Inspired by: Henri Matisse’s vibrant cut-out artwork
Techniques: Squeegee painting, cutting, gluing, 3D sculpture
Skills Explored: Color blending, fine motor cutting, layering, creative construction
Art Words: Sculpture, shape, texture, color, collage
Perfect for: Ages 4–7 who love color, movement, and making art that stands tall!
From swipe to snip to standing bloom—this project is messy, magical, and Matisse-approved!
STEP BY STEP VIDEO
PDF PACKET WITH PROJECT OVERVIEW, SUPPLY LIST, ART HISTORY FOCUS, TEMPLATES, REFERENCE INSPIRATION, PHOTOS OF PROJECT, LESSON PLAN, VOCABULARY WORKSHEET TEACHER KEY AND CLASS SHEET
