Still Life and Collage

This term our after school art club have been working on a project inspired by the Matisse in the Studio exhibition at the Royal Academy.

See how the still life project began by clicking Exploring Still Life 

In the following weeks children continued building and painting their own still life compositions.

They were inspired by Matisse’s cut out techniques to cut into their work and play with new compositions.

They played with scale, colour and background

Being able to move their compositions around on the page helped them layer and overlap forms to create new effects
