Art Workshop Paint like Henri Matisse

Adult Art Workshop | Newmarket Public Library

Explore the joy of bold color, expressive shapes, and creative freedom in this hands-on art workshop inspired by Henri Matisse. Designed for adults of all skill levels, this session offers a relaxed and uplifting environment to experiment with color and composition.

Led by professional artist Kate Medvedok.

• Interesting insights into Henri Matisse and his art
  Learn how Matisse became a leader of the Fauvist movement, known for his vibrant, non-realistic colors and simplified forms. Discover how he believed color could express emotion directly, and how later in life—when painting became physically difficult—he invented his famous paper cut-outs, proving that creativity has no limits.
• Explore color, shape, and composition — step by step
  Learn how to use bold color combinations, flowing lines, and simplified shapes to create harmony and balance, inspired by Matisse’s expressive approach. All techniques are taught through clear, guided steps using acrylic paint.
• Create your own Matisse-inspired artwork
  Focus on joy, movement, and personal expression rather than perfection, and leave with a finished piece that reflects your unique style.

No prior experience required. Come as you are—curiosity and creativity are all you need.
