PaperMonster “Name Your Commission” Project

One of The Blot’s favorite artists is back in a big way! Shockingly, it’s been almost two years since I’d last heard from NYC based artist PaperMonster, but he’s reemerged on the art scene with an epic offer. For the first and only time, PaperMonster is opening his doors to any and all commissions from his fans. No matter if you have $5 or $5,000,000,000,000, PaperMonster will create a unique and original work of art on paper, canvas, wall or object.

PaperMonster’s commission window is only open for a brief period of time (now through Wednesday, May 7th), so act fast! What a killer way to get the piece of original artwork you’ve always wanted! Commissions can be open to PaperMonster’s choosing or be based on your own concepts/ideas that work within your personal art budget. All of the works created as part of PaperMonster’s “Name Your Commission” special will be documented and photographed to be compiled for a future book project.

To place an order for a one of a kind PaperMonster commission, or to find out more information about this deal, contact the artist at v@papermonster.org. In your email please include your personal budget, the type of work requested (i.e. drawing on paper, drawing on canvas, stencil of canvas, etc.),you’re your concept/idea for the design.

New Hand Stenciled Silkscreen Print by PaperMonster

It’s been a really long time since The Blot Says… has featured the work of PaperMonster, but I was perusing the Dirty Pilot website this past weekend and saw this beautiful hand stenciled screen print of a wolf girl and was blown away. I really love PaperMonster’s stenciling work and this is a great example of why. The colors and images just pop off the page!

Each hand stenciled 7.75”x9.75” silkscreen comes hand signed and numbered by PaperMonster and is printed on Somerset 300gms art paper with a deckeled bottom edge. Pick one up today at the Dirty Pilot online store for $50 each.

PaperMonster x Choke Urban Creation Umbrellas

If like The Blot you don’t like getting wet, here’s a release just for you! PaperMonster, one of The Blot’s favorite stencil graffiti artists, has teamed up with Choke Urban Creation to produce a very cool umbrella featuring one of PaperMonster’s iconic images. Based on PaperMonster’s original painting “Outlaw”, the PaperMonster x Choke Urban Creation umbrella comes in packaging designed by the artist and features a one button auto-open/close design with each design viewable from above or below the umbrella. This is seriously such a great idea, and I really hope Choke brings in more street artists from around the globe to produce more umbrellas. I just hope these umbrellas work as well as they look!

This release is actually one in a series of new designer umbrellas by Choke Urban Creation, which also features artwork by A1one (from Tehran) and Cabiao (from Buenos Aires). Each umbrella sells for 25 Euros and can be purchased from Choke Urban Creation’s online store.

New PaperMonster Solo Exhibition "PaperMonster Ate That Little Boy"

PaperMonster has a new solo exhibition opening July 2nd in Philadelphia, PA at the Vincent Michael Gallery entitled “PaperMonster Ate That Little Boy.” PaperMonster will be debuting over twenty new works of stencil art collages on canvas full of powerful portraits of women exploring themes of strength, fear, passion, and mystery. Several portraits are woven together with combinations of women and animals; each speaking to the strength, ferocity, and power that women carry within.


PaperMonster’s collage work within each painting allows the audience to develop their own perception and theories as to who these people are and what they hide. To coincide with his “PaperMonster Ate That Little Boy” exhibition, PaperMonster will also be having an artist talk on July 24th at the Vincent Michael Gallery from 2-4pm covering his thoughts on stencil art and the art world at large. If you live in the greater Philadelphia area, you should definitely check out this amazing artist’s work!

Gold Coin x PaperMonster T-Shirt

The Blot has no idea how I missed this awesome collaboration between San Francisco based clothing brand Gold Coin and New York stencil graffiti artist PaperMonster, but I’m glad I happened to notice it while checking out GC’s Holiday 2009 clothing line. The Blot was just looking at this cool crossbones t-shirt and thought to myself how the design inside the cross-bones looks just like some of PaperMonster’s killer paper collage artwork. Of course, if I had only taken the time to look at the shirt’s title I would have realized right away this was an official Gold Coin x PaperMonster t-shirt!


Gold Coin is only producing 500 black and 500 white of the limited edition PaperMonster t-shirts seen above, so if you want one act fast! Once these tees are gone, they’ll never be available again. The Gold Coin x PaperMonster tee is available now in both black and white for $30 each at the Gold Coin online store.
