SDFAS 2016 7th Grade students worked in teams to recreate Henri Matisse’s, Woman in a Purple Coat, in fabric. The image of the original painting was projected onto paper— then traced and segmented, to form a working pattern from which the students could work. Together they cut, fused and assembled each section. On the reverse side, their personal, yet creative effort can be seen in the embroidery of their names and images of their choosing.

SDFAS 2017 7th Grade students worked in teams to recreate Henri Matisse’s, Goldfish in a Bowl, in fabric. The image of the original painting was projected onto paper— then traced and segmented, to form a working pattern from which the students could work. Together in small groups, they cut, fused and assembled each section. On the reverse side, their names have been embroidered on the French flag complete with SDFAS Logo (dry clean only).
