Middle School Art Students have been celebrating the Christmas season by creating some fun art projects. This one is art by cutting paper. They learned a little bit of history about paper cutting artwork including what it's called in different countries. In China it is called Jianzhi (pronounced "John-zee"). In Poland it is called Wycinanki (pronounced "vee-cee-non-key"). In Mexico it is called Papel-Picado, meaning "perforated paper". Finally, in Germany it is called Scherenschnitte (pronounced "share-en-shnit"), meaning "scissor snips." Many of the students decided to create snowflakes but some created other Christmas scenes.
