“From the moment
I held the box of colors in my hands,
I knew this was my life. I threw myself
into it like a beast that plunges towards
the thing it loves.”
Henri Matisse
Frenchborn artist who was studying to
be a lawyer but instead discovered his
love for art while recovering from
appendicitis. He is best known for his
shocking use of bright clashing colors,
forms and silhouettes in his collages.
