Pig paper-cut pattern and paper-cut tutorial

Speaking of pigs, the first thing people think of is wealth. Just because pigs have always been regarded as a symbol of wealth and money in traditional Chinese culture. It is precisely because of this understanding that the image of pigs appears very frequently in paper-cut patterns. As we all know, pigs are full of treasures, so pigs are regarded as auspicious animals that bring wealth. At the same time, pig itself has another meaning because of the homophony of the word, that is, pig represents "step by step promotion" and "name on the gold list", because in ancient times, if someone was named on the gold list, they usually used red. The pronunciation of the word "zhu" in red vermilion pen happens to be the same as the pronunciation of the word "pig", so it is often used as oral color.

Because the image of the pig itself is cute and interesting, in the creation of pig paper-cut patterns, only the pig itself often appears, and few other things are used as a match. The pig in this paper-cut pattern appears alone in the entire work. However, because the pigs body is matched with rich auspicious patterns and common patterns, people will not feel that the production itself is weak.

1. Preparation work before paper-cutting. Before paper-cutting, prepare several sheets of single-sided colored paper and place them in a stacked manner. Use a stapler to fix the stacked papers.

2. Tracing, as the most important part of the basic paper-cut tutorial is tracing. Since this paper-cut pattern is relatively simple, it can be completed by manual tracing. The patterns and patterns can be adjusted and added according to your own needs.

3. In paper-cutting and carving-cutting, pigs generally have a relatively round body shape, so during the paper-cutting process, the knife needs to be moved relatively gently, so that the outlined curves can be as smooth and complete as possible. This is because the paper-cutting experience is relatively lacking. Learners who are not very stable in holding the knife may find it slightly difficult and need more practice. Some patterns on the pigs body can be completed by partially symmetrical paper-cutting or engraving and cutting.
