Matisse was a lawyer. He developed a passion for art and quit work as a lawyer to create bright colorful paintings. When he was older, he got stomach cancer and became bed ridden. He began drawing with chalk on a stick on his ceiling and walls. Here he developed a love of collage. He had helpers come and paint bright paper for him to cut out and collage. His helpers never got credit for their work
