Matisse In Trouble

Henri Matisse
became a person of interest to the local police
when he painted La Dance
they suggested he plan to shortly leave La France.

Henri Matisse ,artist,confronted colour
his cut-outs , a minimalistic tour
This genre enabled him to manipulate
piece by piece,..to proliferate

Drawing with scissors was no great change
in reality it increased Matisse colourful range

Premium Member T Is For Tetractys Matisse Ekphrasis

my
eye was
attracted
to the Blue nude*
by the intensity of colour-
the
image
triggering
stark sensations
drawn by the simple abstract shape.

Disabled but undaunted
Into another phase he led;
with children's coloured cut-outs
A new form Matisse made-
Collage that would never fade

Matisse

The flowers are not alone,
Their souls belong to the bees,
they belong to butterflies,
belong to God,
Above all, don’t pick them,
Because as soon as they die,
Except in a blue and yellow vase
Painted by Matisse.

RENAISSANCE
when desire plays its part
in matters of the heart,
passion consumes the eyes,
frees inspiration's cries;
ideas conceive,and
from memory retrieve
as love,gives birth...to art

MATISSE said without passion there is no art.

Sit Down Like Matisse

SIT DOWN LIKE MATISSE 


Sit down like Matisse 
with coloured paper and scissors 
and cut a red Eastern poppy - 
papaver orientale! 

Stare at goldfish in a bowl, 
consider your life in art; 
what it's done for your soul: 
luxe, calme et volupte.

Craft me a tiffany
that others may see

Cut out a matisse
for my mantle-piece

Throw me a pollock
to which others will flock

Abstract me a rothko
I can keep on show

Sculpt like epstein

Draw like da vinci

Was by an artist of worldwide renown
Sadly the museum hung it upside down
Forty-seven days nothing seemed amiss
So what would Henri made of this-
Travesty to the great Matisse

Artists throughout the ages
purportedly with strange, and often tragic, lives–
lore’s pages.	 

Some from past files– 
Van Gogh, Picasso, Matisse, Beuys–
quaint styles. 

We laud
them now in archives–

Vibrant Matisse Vase

Firm,
Green vase,
With the curves,
Of a lovely woman,

Within,
You caress,
Tender,
Sweet,
Vibrancies,
Of,
Flowers,

That gaze,
Like dream,
Upon,
The mediterranean,
Shore,

Like an exotic woman,
Embraces,
Her love,
Her tears and laughter,
With bright lemons,
By her hem
