Theme 38: The cuttings of Matisse

Welcome to the gallery of The Difference of 25! I am proud to present you the new gallery with wonderful colourful cuttings inspired by Matisse. I especially like the combinations of the big artworks and the small allover artworks. I was wondering if anyone used a scissors as big as Matisse...

But of course not all the artworks are made of paper cuttings, some are digital made or made with stamps. Thank you all for sending your artwork!

For now, enjoy the gallery and don't forget to scroll down to have a closer look at the artworks.

I hope to see you back on the first of June for the new theme. Have a great week!

Theme of May: The cuttings of Matisse

Welcome back to The Difference of 25. Sorry to keep you waiting for the new theme but I've been very busy with my work. At the end of April I saw the exhibition "The oasis of Matisse" in het Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. I saw it together with Anne-Lize, who is also one of the loyal participants of the blog. It was beautiful. The cuttings are overwhelming by size and colour.

When you look closely you can still see the pin holes as he used to pin the cuttings on the wall.
But the most remarkable thing was the enormous scissors he used!
The cuttings of Matisse is this month theme. Of course you can make paper cuttings, but you can also paint, make pictures or use other techniques. Be inspired by Matisse!
You can send in your artwork until the 24th of May.
The exbibition lasts until the 16th of August: http://www.stedelijk.nl/en/exhibitions/the-oasis-of-matisse
