“PaperMonster Ate That Little That Little Boy” is the latest titled of PaperMonster’s solo exhibition opening Friday, July 2nd 6-9 PM in Philadelphia, PA at the Vincent Michael Gallery.

On top of the many amazing pieces on display, there will also be a HUGE wall mural in the gallery that PaperMonster actually did a time-lapse of, which you can watch above! His 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.

Ganmetall Celsius Show Custom: MeSmithey
Platform: Celsius
Medium: Sculpy, acrylic, mylar... and the power of the sun!
Megan aka MeSmithy is usually know for her awesome stitched leather bound vinyl figures, so when I saw her awesome custom Celsius figure it was kinda a shock, as there is not a swatch of fabric to be found... nonetheless he painting skills are supreme as she totally killed this piece! Titled "900°" I love how the sculpy was added to give this piece an almost molten hot magma look, and along with the paint application, this custom really looks great on the Celsius platform! Come on out to see this piece in person at T.A.G aka Toy Art Gallery in Los Angeles on July 10th, 2010 for the Ganmetall Celsius Show!
