From whimsical to edgy, from sentimental to quirky -- Paperhugger Studio offers delicately designed and handmade cut-paper art. Most are one-of-a-kind and no two items are alike. Custom orders are very much welcome.

Learning the art of papercutting in 2013 took me by surprise. I took part in a benefit exhibition the same year, where I had two papercut artworks custom-framed and auctioned for the benefit of typhoon victims in the Philippines. That was a priceless experience. Being able to make and show my art actually did me more favor than the other way around. It saved me.

So I am happy to tell you that every glimpse, every comment, every desire to purchase, every share, and every sale goes beyond the transaction – it attests to my decision and belief that art can have a significant effect on people. My greatest wish is for my work to resonate with you and bring you joy. If my work connects with you in some way, I would love to know. I hope my art will give you something that is beyond the aesthetics you were looking for. <3
