Mompou Restaurant: Solo Exhibition PaperMonster

May 8, 2008
—————————————————
Earlier this week PaperMonster (myself) went into a rampage of painting. I have been working on group, solo shows, and other design projects for the past couple of weeks. I am doing a small exhibition of works for a restaurant. I will be sending over some pieces to DrityPilot.com to showcase some of the experimental works that I have created before my solo show with them. (very excited about those pieces) PaperMonster will be releasing two new t-shirt designs: one this week and another once DirtyPilot has posted the works in their group show section. Below are some preview images of the restaurant hanging.
I will be doing a solo exhibition for the restaurant from May 9th until June 5th.
It will take place in Mompou Restaurant:
Mompou Tapas Bar
77 Ferry Street
Newark, NJ
visit: www.mompoutapas.com/
For purchase info contact: v@papermonster.org

Stenciling on grass is fantastic.
I truly love this space. It is just so beautiful. Must see!!

These paintings are 2 of almost 8 of the paintings on the top main floor. They all look fantastic under the lighting.



The restaurant has an incredible entrance that opens up to fresh fresh air. Truly a beautiful location.

Hope that you enjoy the images. I am working hard on writing much less and showing much more. Life is a work in progress. Stay tuned for a new T-shirt release celebrating the restaurant show.
Thanks

Stencil Event feat. PaperMonster

May 4, 2008
——————————————————–
Earlier this week I was invited to Drew University to create some stencils and help with a stencil/muralist event which La Casa Latina (Theme House) was holding for the campus. This free event gave people the opportunity to create t-shirts using stencil and fabric paint to create beautiful pieces of walking art. The weather was fantastic and I brought along some things to demonstrate how more complex stencil pieces are put together. Overall it was a fantastic time and the theme house did a great job of providing a means of self expression for the campus. In addition to the event I was invited by a curator to create several pieces which will be shown in a restaurant name Mompou (located inNewark, New Jersey’s Ironbound District.) The space is incredible and I will post some preview pictures after the hanging next week. Here are some pictures from the stencil art event. Enjoy.

I cut some simple stencils for students to use on t-shirts.

Spraypaint and stencils makes a perfect combination.

There were tons of people out for the event.
Finished shirt laying out to dry.
When I first started stenciling, this was the easiest method to making shirts on a ten dollar budget.

PaperMonster canvases prepared and ready for the final touches.


PaperMonster at work!!


Finished pieces and tools of the trade.

Mompou’s Entrance
This is one of the two spaces which I will be placing several pieces. More images from Mompou coming soon. Enjoy.
