The studio
Paper Moth is a private two-artist studio in downtown Guelph, working only in fine line and single needle.
Small work needs a steady hand and honest advice about placement and healing. We will tell you if a design is too small or too detailed to age well, and suggest what will.
Questions
Does fine line fade faster?
Fine lines can soften more than bold ones, especially on hands and feet. Good placement and sizing make a big difference; we will advise you.
Can I bring my own design?
Yes. We will redraw it for fine line and make sure it will hold up.
How should I care for it?
Keep it clean, use a thin layer of unscented lotion, and keep it out of the sun while it heals. You get written aftercare.
