Year of the Snake Paper-cut: Flowers, Grass, Snake Paper-cut Patterns and Paper-cut Tutorials Year of the Snake Paper-cut: Flowers, Grass, Snake Paper-cut Patterns and Paper-cut Tutorials

The Year of the Snake paper-cut is being produced, especially the paper-cutting artists who are specifically working on the Year of the Snake paper-cut pattern. When creating, you usually need to consider two issues. One is what the texture of the paper-cut snake itself should look like. Since it is a paper-cut made for the Year of the Snake, the paper-cut snake itself needs to be the main element in the entire paper-cut production. At least it needs to have a certain status; the second question is what kind of elements should be used to match the paper-cut snake. The main focus of this question is what kind of decoration and combination the paper-cut snake should have to make it more beautiful and more harmonious. The needs of paper-cut culture and traditional culture. It is based on these two considerations that we see a large number of very interesting and folkloric paper-cut patterns for the Year of the Snake.

Many Years of the SnakePaper Cut Paper-cut production and paper-cut patterns seem relatively simple, but the production of the Year of the Snake paper-cut we see today is relatively complicated, especially in terms of patterns and compositions. However, the complexity is mainly concentrated in the lines of the paper-cut snake and flower. If we imagine these lines as if they do not exist, in fact, the paper-cut snake and its matching paper-cut flowers are relatively easy to decompose in terms of style. Another factor that increases the complexity of paper-cutting in this Year of the Snake is the paper-cut snake itself. The paper-cut snake exists in a coiled form on the flowers and plants. Such paper-cut production has never happened or appeared in the past. This is definitely a must for paper-cut beginners. A challenge.


So how should we try to complete this relatively complex paper-cut production for the Year of the Snake:


1. Materials needed for flower and snake paper cutting. For such a more complicated Year of the Snake paper-cut production, we recommend that more cutting and carving parts be done with the help of a carving knife. Therefore, in terms of paper selection, you can choose paper with a crisper texture. This type of paper is very suitable for use. In terms of cutting the pattern of the paper-cut snake, it is more suitable for carving-related operations.


2. Paper-cut tracing tips for the Year of the Snake. For this paper-cut snake pattern, if you want to reduce the difficulty, the simpler way is to directly trace or print the drawing with the help of a printer, which will be more efficient. If you are hand-drawing, you can use the method of drawing different things sequentially, that is, first complete the position of flowers and plants by hand-drawing, and then complete the position of the paper-cut snake by hand-drawing. Then, the structures on different levels are marked out by applying shadows, so that there will be no confusion during the specific cutting operation. There is no need to describe the specific patterns. Since the number of patterns is relatively large, when it is actually opened, it is basically impossible to guarantee that every pattern will correspond.


3. Year of the SnakePaper-cutting tutorialOperating instructions. When specifically cutting, you can first use ordinary scissors to cut the outline of the paper-cut snake. After obtaining the outline of the paper-cut pattern, you can then use a carving knife to carve detailed patterns and patterns, because using a carving knife will make the entire Paper cutting has become easier, so I won’t explain it in detail here.
