Living with Matisse

I have always been drawn to Henri Matisse, with his cut outs being most appealing. As a child I loved the idea that an artist was someone who could "cut and paste." Of course, his work is so much more than that, but I love that his works start from such a simple place.














Loving Matisse, I adore this chest from Bungalow5. (Matisse Large Cabinet in White Lacquered Oak.)













I can imagine having this in a room, possibly even storing construction paper and scissors so that someone can do a cut out of her own.
