When asking about paper cut, I was too impatient to wait to take out my paper cuts. After watching it, Grandpa Zhang asked: “Is this your image?”
“No.” I said, “I searched on internet.”
“Ok!” he said to me with smile, “The image is |

is very fine. The shortcoming is the image does not belong to you. This paper cut does not have your thoughts and understanding. When you could create image, this work will be endowed with soul. It could represent your thought and lead you further.”
After saying, Grandpa Zhang took out scissor and taught us how to cut with words—no matter what you want to cut out, the cut paper work must be no-break even with thousand cut and no-drop even with 10thousand cut. And explained “drop” was a complete body. We listened to grandpa Zhang's understanding to paper cut and thought his words.
We have never analyzed paper cut like this, and never felt paper cut is with so much meaning. Though the direction of Grandpa, I have better understanding to paper cut.
