	The Lightness Of Being Stone Riley Acrylic on canvas, 24 x 30 inches. When good old Henri Matisse, long a widower, lay lingering in his final illness, weaker month by month, he and his fond assistant devised a new technique for art. The good lady painted sheets of paper whatever colors that he wished and he would sit back on his pillows with a scissors cutting out the shapes which she would paste up per his instructions on a large canvas on an easel by the bed. These works are very fresh and full of story, music, joy and light. I fancy you can see them laughing with each other. Here's a book I put this little bit of writing in, on page 32: www.stoneriley.com/CFTB_GO.html Or here's one about Van Gogh, a predecessor of Matisse: http://www.stoneriley.com/TOMW/Sunflowers.html Or here's a collection of short writings: www.stoneriley.com/TOMW.html Or the home website: www.stoneriley.com
