Silhouettes

when i first made the silhouettes, i found it really hard becuse at first i did not know how to make it. you had to get a bright piece of paper and you had to fold it in half.Then you had to draw a chinese style design on the paper using a pencil. After that, you cut out the shape you have drawn,makeing sure that you dont cut the edge od the paper. then you open it out carefully and fold each figure in half separately.finally cut out the detail you have marked along the crease and then open it out and there you have your silhouettes.Art in china started about AD 105, as the years went on silhouettes started to be made.silhuoettes are used for decorations and puppet shows.
