I've been playing with paper cut-outs this week so inevitably I thought of Matisse.

I am using commercially coloured papers but Matisse's fantastic 'drawings with scissors' were made from only white paper and gouache.

Watch this short but evocative video of Matisse himself at work on his cut-outs.
And check out Moma's in-depth description of the process Matisse used - along with his assistants - to make, transport and preserve the cut-outs.
