1908-09 Self-Portrait “à la Marat” 81 x 85 cm Munch Museum, Oslo The Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is regarded as a pioneer in the Expressionist movement in modern painting. At an early stage Munch was : in Germany and central Europe as one of the creators of a new epoch. Munch’s art from the 1890s is the most well known, but his later work is steadily attracting greater attention. For full biographical notes on Munch see Edvard Munch part 1- introduction. For earlier works see parts 2-11 also.

I’ve been a huge fan of Corey’s “Tongue in Cheek” for so long, I can’t even remember when we first connected. But I’m so happy that we did. From learning about how Corey first met her French Husband, getting acquainted with her California family and her children, and now a beautiful grandchild (!) to the enchanting images of the vintage, old and luxurious brocante treasures-to die for, seeing life through Corey’s eyes has been a joy. Much needed, especially now in these challenging times. I’m so attached to Corey’s point of view because it reflects the vision I bring to my own work. I’m an artist, living on a small island, not far from Seattle. Although growing up, my family lived on both coasts of the US, in Europe and South America, I find great peace and joy in our little wooded neighborhood, where connections to nature abound: beach walks and the discovery of ornately patterned shards of Blue Willow china from long ago washed and tumbled by the sea; long rain misted hikes through the island’s towering firs and cedars, the ground usually damp from the grey drizzle that keeps us “green”; the wild (and terribly invasive) blackberries that are so sweet plucked warm off the vine in the short, warm summer months. We even welcome the rose-eating deer to our yard-this year, being homebound because of Covid, it was a very special treat that our resident doe, (that we named “Doe”), brought twins (!) to our lives, all spotty and freckled. (We named them “Dipple” and “Dapple” even though we couldn’t tell them apart, but it was always fun to say, “Oh look! There are Dipple, Dapple and Doe outside!). We live in an old island home, created from beach rock and grey shingles with the dark wood (and scuffed) floors and beamed ceilings that were born from our island’s plentiful woods, more than a hundred years ago. It’s where I work and paint and although, over the many years, I have created a wide variety of art and loved volunteering in every art project and auction creation while our children were small. I’ve found my passion now is depicting the beauty of time passing, the vintage, the loveliness in the faded and decay and adding strong swipes of bold color to the mix, for an unexpected spot of modernity. I describe my paintings as being influenced by...

Small Artists...Big Imaginations

This week we were inspired by a project over at Art With Mr. E. His first-grade project inspired by Matisse's Egyptian Curtain painting: Egyptian Curtain, 1948 Harmony in Red, 1908 Blue Window, 1912 Interior with Phonograph, 1924 Large Red Interior, 1948 We talked about all the interior scenes in these images from Matisse and the bright colors he used. We talked about how he liked to put a window in the rooms. And often they had table with flowers or fruit. The girls set to work creating their interior. I helped Lily a bit just drawing the rectangle for her window and the table. She did the rest. After drawing in their pictures, they colored them in with markers: They created a wallpaper pattern for the background of their pictures. After coloring them in, we cut out scrapbook paper and attached it to the side of the paper with glue stick to create the curtain. Here are their final projects: Ella's Matisse inspired work Lily's Matisse inspired work I love the colors Ella used. She wanted to make her window and table smaller so she could add a rug. She did a fantastic job making the front of her table wider than the back to give it perspective. She did that all on her own! And I love that Lily mimicked her curtain pattern in the wallpaper with opposite colors. I'm not even sure she did that consciously or if she just did it because pink and purple are her favorite colors. But it worked out really great!

Elizabeth Endres paints from things remembered, familiar, and collected. Tablescapes and botanical shapes become part of the interiors she paints with faces peeking from behind leaves and stems. Her contemporary renderings evoke the masters Matisse and Cezanne while transporting us into the somewhat surreal. Endres was awarded the 2018 PAFA’s Women’s Board Travel Scholarship and ...

First article outlining Munch’s life and work. His early works shocked critics in Norway, and in Berlin brought an exhibition to a premature end.

HeNRI MATISSE December 31, 1869- November 5, 1954 I began this unit on Matisse by showing the video "Dropping in on Matisse", then reading the book "Drawing with Scissors". I read on more on my own the book "Matisse from A to Z". I am totally hooked on Matisse for some reason. So, I decided to try three lesson inspired by the artist this year. The first one is... PICTURE IN A PICTURE (worksheet below created by Tabitha Seaton) (This is a new lesson I will be doing soon, examples coming soon...) Haley A. 8th grade Kimberley R. 7th grade Angel S. 8th grade Autumn B. 8th grade Rosie, 7th grade Chloe, 6th grade Aracely, 7th grade Alexis A., 7th grade Emily A. 7th grade Hailey j. 6th grade WILD BEAST WINDOWS Matisse was always bringing the outside in. He loved to work indoors, but look outside. He was like a goldfish in a bowl, a spectator always looking out but being protected from the elements. So, he brought the light into his work by opening up all the windows. He always enjoyed using colors that "sing" since he was a Fauve (Wild Beast in English). So, we are going to create a window that brings the outside into us. Lets use the same wild colors that Matisse uses. They don't have to make sense. Trees can be pink and purple, the sky can be green! The crazier the better. Choose colors like a wild beast! Matisse would love it... Mrs. Seaton's Windows 1. Have the kids make an "X" on their paper with the corners of the "X" meeting the corners of the paper. The center of the "X" becomes the Vanishing Point. Let them know that the vanishing point is always on the horizon line of the landscape that they will create later. 2. Make an opening for the window by creating a rectangle. All corners of the rectangle must match up with the lines of the "X". Each corner of the window will rest on the "X". (use a ruler) 3. Create a sill under the window to put objects on. These objects can be something important to the artist to share with us their personality. Matisse usually put goldfish, plants, or flowers on his tables. I put my daily devotional book, my prayer shawl, my Chai Tea and my cat. Kids can put a football, their favorite book, or their phone in the sill. 4. Make a patterned curtain (Matisse loved wild prints) or use the vanishing point to create shutters or lines on the ceiling. *I will count points for this or bonus (depending on level of grade). 5. Draw a landscape of choice. Matisse usually showed a sunny, hot place by the sea (his favorite). I drew a hiking path at the Nature Preserve. Students can draw their favorite vacation spot, their front yard, or downtown city streets. Draw Draw Draw, be creative... Matisse thought that art was not meant to look like a photograph. So, don't mimic realistic nature, draw what is in your imagination. 6. Now color crazy! Go pick the brightest colors you can find! Find the crayons, markers, and colored pencils that sing the loudest and use those for your picture. (above in colored pencils by Tabitha Seaton) (above in Acrylic Paint by Tabitha Seaton) (above in crayon by Tabitha Seaton) Mrs. Seaton's Student's Windows These are older examples that we painted. After we were done we hung them in the halls above the lockers to give a view into our artistic imaginations... PAPER CUT OUTS Matisse created the idea of paper cut outs when he was old and restricted to a wheelchair or in his bed. He was unable to stand for long periods of time and do all the usual art from his younger days. Although his body was tired, his imagination and creative spirit was UNSTOPPABLE! He was not going to quit. Sometimes it is out hardest time that makes our art it's finest. Art is medicine to the soul! It keeps your heart alive when your body is dying... So, he got scissors and cut organic and geometric shapes from painted paper and arranged them harmoniously. He called this "drawing with scissors". His place was a mess, filled with scraps of painted paper everywhere. Mrs. Seaton's Examples I did this paper cut out when my first daughter Maisy was very small. It shows the joy of a new mother as her girls grows. I did this paper cut out after I had gone through a spiritual transformation to a Christian retreat in 2008. I made these 2 above between 2009&2011 student examples from Mrs. Seaton's class Spring 2014 Sheila, 7th grade Breanna M., 7th grade Annalee, 7th grade Autumn, 7th grade Alison, 6th grade Ashley O., 7th grade Ricardo, 8th grade Daniel, 6th grade Shae W., 6th grade Jocei, 6th grade Hailey j., 6th grade Kaitlyn pickle, 6th grade Anjel, 6th grade Allen, 6th grade Madison, 6th grade Josh h., 6th grade Lauren Speights, 7th grade Rachel Drennon, 7th grade Lauren Speights, 7th grade Kimberley Ramos, 7th grade RaylanTave, 8th grade Caleb teeters, 7th grade Lauren Speights, 7th grade Kaylynn Payne, 7th grade Jose, 7th grade Grant, 8th grade Maria S., 7th grade Omar, 7th grade Jonathan, 7th grade

This is a recent project from 1st grade. We started the lesson by watching several youtube short biography video's and montage clips on Matisse. I love doing these Matisse cutouts, because it challenges them to use their cutting skills. You can really get an idea of the students motor skills and hand-eye coordination. We talked about some of the types of cutouts Matisse did, like the starburst, splash, spirals, zigzags and wavy lines. Students kept both positive and negative cutouts and could use both parts of each of their shape as part of the final arrangement. We spent a total of 4 days and ended the lesson with one of my favorite art books, When Pigasso Met Mootisse, by Nina Laden.

TK - 4th Grade

Students investigated the last years of Henry Matisse's career, in which he dedicated his time to making large collages of gouache-painted paper, cut out directly with scissors and assembled into extraordinary compositions. The students were inspired by Matisse's work and his great "gouaches découpès" to create colorful collages with stylized figures.
