A Person with a Traditional Skill

Li Qiyi, a 65­year­old man who is of average height and a little thin, is good at paper­cutting.He began to learn paper­cutting from his father when he was four years old.Not only does he work very hard but also he has a pair of skillful hands.Using colour paper and scissors, he can finish one piece of work in only a few minutes.His works are in all kinds of shapes，such as animals，flowers and characters, which I think are really fantastic.

Paper­cutting is a kind of amazing art and we all should try our best to keep this traditional skill alive forever.
