CUT PAPER DESIGN
Grade 8
STEPS
Preliminary Sketch: planning the details before cutting the design
Color Selection
2 layers of cutting paper
Attaching layers using rubber cement
DES IGN STAGES :PR ELIMIN ARY SKETCH
Representational : (You may choose to cut layers that can represent an object or have a theme such as a landscape)
You may choose to cut layers that focus on details or small intricate designs. (can be curvy design- organic) or geometric (straight lines)
TIP: Layers must be cut to oppose the directions of the lines. (contrasting cuts – example: top layer can be primarily horizontal while the second layer has vertical cuts.
COLOR SELECTION
Choose Contrasting Colors
Complementary Color Pairs to think about:
Red and Green , Blue and Orange; Yellow and Violet
TIP: the greater the contrast, the more successful the design
CUT LAYER OBJECTIVES:
Top layer: Should have smaller cuts, and an interesting design quality
Second layer: Fewer cuts in an the opposite direction
Third Layer: Solid color with no cutting
TIP : Don’t tear the cuts with your x-acto knife (neatness is an important quality in the design )
