Analysing Practice: Paper and card




I was quite interested in Henri Matisse's work, he was a French painter but because of his Arthietus he can no long paint. Instead, he cuts out shapes and creates collages with them. There is a sense of repeatition in his work similarly.



This technique is particularly useful for experimenting
- with different COMPOSTION
- with different TONE / COLOR
- basica elements of scale

Also, I've been reading 'The Fundamentals of Illustration' and this peice caught my eye. The artist was working with layers. The flat design looked like screen printing.



I will aim to experiment with pattern and shape in this style.
