This piece was inspired by the French artist Henry Matisse. This portrays and depicts his art from 20th century. He was known for printmaking and collage along with other types of art. In this piece, I had used my sketch from my previous post, traced it, and then outlined it with tracing paper. This part was very boring and I did not enjoy it because I had to retrace it three times and I don't really have much patience for that. When doing this project, I learned new techniques/processes such as using the precise carving tool to cut out each shape. The technique I learned was how to cut out shapes on black paper so that I would later be able to put it on white paper. This project definitely helped me gain skill when using this tool. Overall, I am very proud of the outcome and how it turned out. I think all the time I put into making this as creative and challenging as I can definitely payed off.
