Matisse the Bird Collector
Old school analog collage (paper, scissors & glue) created for the blog with a weekly challenge:
The Kollage Kit
THEME: COLLECTORS & THEIR COLLECTIONS
I was browsing through an art book and found this photo of Henri Matisse tending to his collection of exotic birds which he purchased from Paris merchants who were selling caged birds along the Seine. Reportedly starting in the summer of 1936, his love for birds remained throughout his life and surely the doves and songbirds he so enjoyed influenced his later cut-out creations.
