Henri Matisse, from and Interview with Charles Estienne in 1909

Day 19iii

Well it is Monday after all, for those of you who enjoyed my Monday Bouquets last year. As many of you know Henri Matisse is an artist hero of mine and quotations from one of my favourite books, Matisse on Art, will make great additions to my Monday posts; from Monday Bouquets to Matisse Mondays, from time to time. What could be better? Now, back to work!

My favorite complementary colors, yellow and violet, make today’s Monday Bouquet the

perfect way to send Complements of the Season to one and all.

Happy Holidays everyone 🙂
