Kenny同志 Posted March 27, 2017 at 04:22 AM Report Posted March 27, 2017 at 04:22 AM Hello folks, I am translating an biography of a papercutter. He was born into a family who had been practising papercutting and 作油漆畫 for generations. Is there an art form that is similar to 油漆畫? What is it called? Thanks. Any help will be appreciated. 油漆畫之解釋：https://zhidao.baidu.com/question/207154466.html 1 Quote

Yes, lacquer painting is the term. Thanks very much for your help. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lacquer_painting 1 Quote
