Miss Bugs will soon release a print of their Carry Your Sins piece which blends religious, patriotic and cultural elements for a powerful image. Put another way — Captin America bearing a Cross, let the fireworks begin.   The duo is employing a multi-step process for the print  which features a 4 color stencil over a 2 color silk screen with hand applied gold leaf accents on Japanese paper.

Miss Bugs. Lady of the Land.

Miss Bugs is about to drop a new print.  Next up is Lady of the Land, a 3 color silkscreen / 3 color stencil + gold leaf piece on archival Japanese paper.  Limited to 30 pieces, these will be available for £145 on Tuesday, December 8th @ 1 PM GMT (5 AM PST) from Cosh.  Very nice as is to be expected from Miss Bugs.  Somewhat unusual since its on paper rather than metal like their last few drops.

It’s been awhile since Miss Bugs has dropped a print directly from the site.  Thursday’s the day.  Miss Bugs will release the two complimentary prints – The Beautiful Art Holding Hands with Oil and The Oil that Funds the Beautiful Art. .  Each print is done with 6 color stencil with 2 color silk screen on stained oak veneer and aluminum, is limited to 25 pieces and will retail for £205.  Hit up missbugs.com this Thursday, November 12th @ 17:00 GMT (9 AM PDT). Each  print is packed with brand references, should look sharp with the interesting mediums.

Rumors abound that LeBasse Projects is going to be putting on a show in NY, so don’t let my recent visit this past weekend change anything. I spent a whirlwind weekend visiting galleries, meeting fun people and dropping in for a few studio visits.

Shiv Gallery in London is starting to offer online sales for pieces from their recent Identity Crisis group show.  First up, individual pieces from Miss Bugs’s massive 42 piece ‘Dirty Art Holding Hands with Politics’.  Each of the hand-done aluminum pieces (50 x 75 cm)is different and features a mix of 4 color stencils, sticker collage and single color silk screens.   T

The gallery is offering these pieces individually (380 + s/h) or in sets of 2 ($720 + s/h). Since each piece is unique here’s the procedure for allocating pieces to buyers — “Once payment has been made we will email you with a picture of your allocated piece. If you are not happy with your allocated piece we will do our best to offer you a second choice if still available. If not we will refund you immediately - all pieces will be allocated on Tuesday 12th and each buyer will be contacted by Tuesday the 12th”

Looks like DD favorite Miss Bugs is about to release another print set along with their upcoming show at Brooklynite gallery with Mr. Joe Black.

Print release series title:   The Faceless Art Three (triptych)
Edition:   30 (of each piece)
Size: 47cm x 70cm (ish)
Price:   USD 380 (each piece)
Medium:   5 colour aerosol stencil / 2 colour silk screen on 2mm aluminium

According to Miss: “each print is unique as they are all hand stenciled and printed by ourselves so depending on how much miss has had to drink and the level of the fumes in the print studio the pieces may differ slightly from the one in the image shown”

Sounds good to me. Contact Brooklynite for purchase.

Miss Bugs, one of our favorite (and most mysterious) artist tandems are bringing us a great little surprise for the holidays. While we are most likely ruining our chances of winning, we just had to let everyone know about their lottery for a set of aluminum  “The Heart Fell From The Art” screenprints.

What we won’t tell you is how to enter – you are going to have to go to MissBugs‘ website and figure it out for yourselves. The contest ends January 2nd, so you had better hurry.

DD loves the tongue-in-cheek combination’s of contemporary artists and cartoons that pervades MB’s work. We really wish we were in London to get a better look at first hand pastes. Someone send us some pics. Keep reading for more or take a look in our members forum to discuss.
