Paper Monster
I really am digging these portraits by Paper Monster, who creates colorful and emotional portraits of women. His work incorporates spraypaint stencil and and collage incorporating pop culture icons, Asian typography, patterns and texture. The collage elements invites the user to explore each of his pieces not just as a portrait of a woman, but also to investigate the underlying themes incorporated within the collage work. Paper Monster also has a 18″ x 24″ screenprint entitled “True Identity” available here for $45.

OUR LATEST GIGPOSTER
We got to design and print a poster for Darling Imperial's farewell show at the Berkley Front. They let us do whatever we wanted, so we went with vintage lettering and a weathered, faded feel.
