Modern art has always had a place in my heart and, as I was growing up, the walls of my family home. While I’m not necessarily taken by everything Gen-Z is reviving (sweater vests and low rise jeans are a hard pass for me) the renaissance of respect for Henri Matisse’s cut outs is right up my artistic alley.

The key to the bulbous ends on the leaves is to put just a little too much gel on the edge of your brush and place the edge first and drag towards the steam. I’m using my favorite detail brush by Narina Chan. You can definitely use any color palette you like, I just love the juxtaposition of the muted rust orange and the pop of neon pink.
