Those he loves, he paints with a tenderness manifested in realism; those he finds grating (or no longer desirable) are turned into twisted portraits under the guise of cubism. Snapped this because of the woman&#8217;s mask-like face, which critics interpret as a reflection of the artist&#8217;s interest in African art. And because this piece seemed like a departure from what we&#8217;ve come to expect of Matisse (no doubt because of the select styles that permeated our Tumblr and Pinterest feeds). Seemingly chaotic strokes (what Still called &#8220;lifelines&#8221;) were actually calming when taken in as a whole in person, but this was the section I wanted to remember. Layers of inky black\u2014what a beautiful mess. I&#8217;m fond of a gradient. (Predictable, I know.)
