5.8.8 "The Mesopolonica Theatre" at Verite Coffee / Cupcake Royale in Ballard!
Rumour had it in every battalion on the Western Front that the next move would be to the East and comparative ease and safety. In time this hypothetical and unknown destination came to be called Mesopolonica.

Monocol presents a nine-act tale in which animal heroes of a grim war band together to rescue a comrade-in-arms. Acrylic paintings on boards, watercolors on paper, all original! The opening is May 10th, from 6 to 9pm, and the show runs 'til June 8th. Click the photo for more info...

5.21.7 So Awesome! So Keen! So Much News!
Thanks so much to everyone who stopped by Cuginis during Ballard Artwalk last Saturday! We had a great time at the show and were completely surprised and excited by the positive response to the new Woodgills and Industrial Revolution prints. Big 7-11 Slurpees to everyone at Cugini's for being such great hosts. Please go pay them a visit and say hi to our work which will be hanging up through the rest of this month!

We've also opened up our very own Etsy store (here) to making purchasing a little bit easier. However, if you still want to to pay us directly through PayPal, money orders, cashiers checks, or really delicious popsicles (and we are talking really delicious, folks) we can still work that out. PAWESOME!

Speaking of pawesome and Etsy, Monocol has been featured in a brand new craft blog from New Zealand, Trixiedelicious (http://trixiedelicious.wordpress.com/). Trixie is awesome (and not only cos she featured us, but we won't lie, that is pretty awesome) because she also makes cool printed dinnerware (the "dumb" and "ass" plate set? OH SNAP, GIRL! Serve up some cake on thoses with some nice cold haterade) -- and also because she told us that possums in NZ carry tuberculosis. Crafty and full of useful animal trivia? Two thumbs up, Gladiator!!

5.12.7 Monocol Show at Cugini Cafe!
New paintings and prints! Ballard Artwalk! You!

4.16.7 Guten tag, Monopatriots!
The weather in Seattle is considering taking a turn for the sunny, and we've been pretty busy in the printing dungeon. Between eating popsicles, watching The Science of Sleep, and playing Lego Star Wars II, Gwynne has been working hard to add to the Monocol Fabric Family. We are proud to present to the world Plusharoid (the Monocol memory-capturer of choice) and a grand send up to America and Hitchcock - North by Pacific Northwest: Mt. Plushmore and Cary Grant. Oh how proudly we hail ....

2.25.7 Hullo Monofreens!
Jeepers creepers, your peepers aren't foolin' -- Monocol is throwing down with a new website. We hope you enjoy the new layout, links, and artwork.

Make like Caesar and beware the ides of March because we are readying a triumvirate of new prints, products, and hopefully shows in the next few weeks. Keep checking back for thrilling updates.

P.S. We didn't want to be total L7s, so we also got a MySpace. Friend us -- we live to answer the $10,000 question: A/S/L?
