✂️Matisse called it "drawing with scissors"
🎨He created until days before his death at 84

Matisse spent his final years reinventing himself with scissors and colored paper. This lecture unpacks how the master created his boldest, most joyful work by cutting shapes freehand and arranging pure color into dancing compositions.
