Matisse-Inspired Art Lesson

Matisse-Inspired Art
We discovered a fun and educational kids’ website all about the art of Henri Matisse, an important 20th century artist.  The Baltimore Museum of Art, which houses the largest holding of works by Henri Matisse in the world, hosts the Flash-based Matisse for Kids interactive website.  Kids learn about Matisse’s use of color, patterns, and objects in his paintings.  Once the lesson is complete, kids get a chance to play with the interactive tools to create their own masterpiece.  We had fun on this website and learned some cool facts.  We then had fun making our own Matisse-inspired art using sketch paper, colored pencils and art markers.  If you enjoy the Baltimore Museum of Art’s Matisse website for kids, here are a few more fun Matisse-related art projects to consider:
