    One Leaf, One World

    Maybe you know Chinese paper cutting, but have you ever heard of leaf-cutting art?

    In autumn and winter, many streets (cover)in fallen leaves. Most of us probably just pass over them without paying much attention. But not Kanat Nurtazin, an artist from Kazakhstan (哈萨克斯坦). He will pick up some fallen leaves and cut beautiful artworks out of them. 

    Kanat works at a university. He (keep)drawing as a hobby to stay creative since 2013. This long-time hobby has also allowed him (express)himself through art. 

    In 2013, Kanat (start)a project called "100 Methods of Drawing". In this project, he tries to use different materials and skills to create artworks. Among all these creative paintings, leaf-cutting art (be)one of his favorites.

    To make leaf art, Kanat first chooses a leaf from his collection. Then, he simply (imagine)a funny story or a lively moment (时刻). He draws it on a piece of paper and sticks the paper to the leaf. After the glue dries, Kanat uses a razor(剃须刀)to cut out the pattern(图案)on the leaf. Finally, the artist finds a beautiful background to take pictures of the leaf. And this "leaf story" will be shared online. A leaf's life is short. But if you look at it with your creative eyes, like Kanat does, you too can give the leaf a second life by (make)it tell an interesting story!
