Following the principle of simplicity and gradual progression, this series uses illustrations to guide learning, making it convenient for children and paper-cutting enthusiasts to learn and contribute to the inheritance and development of the art.
Paper-cutting is one of China's ancient traditional arts, originating and developing among the people. It includes paper-cutting, carving, tearing, and embossing.
