        Frenchman Henri Matisse was among the most influential artists of the twentieth century. He produced masterpieces in a wide (1. VARY) variety of media including painting, sculpture and printmaking, but some consider his most (2. INNOVATE)innovative work to be from his later years, when he suffered from partial (3. BLIND) blindness. and was confined to his bed and a wheelchair. Because of this, he used an (4. EXPERIMENT)  experimental method he called ‘drawing with scissors’. He cut brightly-painted sheets of paper into large shapes. Under his guidance, these paper cut-outs were attached to the walls of his studio. He then directed his (5. ASSIST)  assistant to move the pieces into the precise (6. ARRANGE)  arrangements he had in mind.
     The inspiration for some of the most remarkable scissor drawings was (7. MEMORY)  memorable places Matisse had previously visited but, because of his age, could no longer return to, such as two works he made in 1946 based on an (8.
