New Exclusive figure by Ron English x Mintyfresh x Blue Sky Hospitality

Mousemask Murphy, the iconic figure by artist Ron English has found its way to Mintyfresh again. This time it's a Steampunk edition for which they partnered up with their longtime friends at Blue Sky Hospitality. 

The "London Steampunk Mouse Murphy" is the brainchild of two international artists: a sculpture by Ron English and colour scheme by Henry Chebaane in jet black, cool silver and warm copper that gives an awesome retro-futuristc character reminiscent of the Victorian steam age.

"London Steampunk Mouse Murphy" has been designed to be part of several super-cool restaurant art projects exclusively created by Henry under the title: "waiter: There is a mouse in the house!" The first few mice will appear in London with other European and International capitals in the near future.

Henry Chebaane is the creative director of Blue Sky Hospitality, the boutique design studio known for producing some of the most innovative restaurants, bars and hospitality spaces opened recently on the international scene. As a conceptual artist, he often includes within his own interior design projects some thought-provoking contemporary urban art installations.

Meanwhile, a few lucky punters have the opportunity to acquire a piece of this kick ass bad boy as a limited edition via Mintyfresh only. The London Steampunk edition is limited to 120 pieces worldwide with only 20 pieces going on sale at €159,95 on Sunday June 21st at 8PM Amsterdam Time (2PM New York and 11AM Los Angeles)

Permanent Guest by Coarse Toys

Coarse Toys next release is called Permanent Guest. Initially being released for pre-order in 2 different versions, Endless Shadows and Promised Bliss, each version is limited to just 345 sets. Priced at HK$ 1540 (~$200), these sets are expected to ship in Autumn of 2015. It has been some time since Coarse had a non-Omen public release, choosing to catch up on shipping outstanding orders instead and collectors are chomping at the bit to pick up a piece that isn't an owl. With the Endless Shadows version featuring a black and gold color scheme, the Promised Bliss version  will feature a more color palette closer to the Loser version of Coarse Figures. Measuring around 20" x 8" x 8", each set features 2 vinyl figures: a deceitful fish sitting in a bathtub and the innocent racoon pulling the tub along by a string. As with most Coarse releases, the story behind the figures is quite interesting. Be sure to head on over to Coarse Life and read up. While the Friends and Family pre-order has already occurred, the general Coarse HKG website release will take place on Thursday, June 17th, 2015 at 8:59am LA Time (or 11:59am in New York). Those interested in picking up either of these sets, be sure to be quick. For those who aren't a fan of either of the available color schemes, there will be a retail version available at a later date and most likely some special convention releases as well. Be sure to follow Coarse Toys on social media, as well as Tenacious Toys to stay up to date with any news.

Acid Rain Buddha by Josh Mayhem

Josh Mayhem's latest completed commission is a Custom Big Bad Buddha titled "Acid Rain Buddha". Featuring a very colorful palette, typical to Josh's Acid rain pieces, Acid Rain Buddha sits atop a black platform. With the piece completely covered in UV reactive paint, this piece glows nicely under blacklight. Josh also decided to sculpt a smaller gourd for the figure to hold because the original gourd was a bit too large for what Josh wanted. For those who want a commissioned piece of their own, be sure to contact Josh Mayhem and get the ball rolling.

"Curious Lithops" x Penny for Taylored Curiosities

Lithops are the easiest plant to care for. To keep these curious beings happy, simply pop them in a position where they can watch the world go by and occasionally sing to them (genre is entirely up to you, they have a rather eclectic music taste).

I wonder which kind you'll find? Will you have a youthful, spring edition, at the beginning of its life cycle? Maybe you'll find a summer bloom (handmade flower), soaking up all that warmth? Or you might have purchased an autumn edition, complete with fresh new life sprouting (baby bud)?

You won't know until you open your parcel.

These mixed media pieces are entirely handmade by Penny from an original design and sculpt. Each piece is hand painted and pieced together. Paper flowers are cut and folded by hand and all Lithops are finished off with detailing on their tops.

Lithops measure 1" tall. Their pots are 0.5" tall. Those with flowers reach 2" tall altogether. Lithops are connected to their pots with wire (they are detachable if need be).

Due to the handmade nature, no two will ever be completely alike. Colours and shades may vary.

Each piece is signed and dated and comes in a clear bag with a Curious Lithops info card.

New Custom "Revolt" Mickiv by Patrick Wong

A brand new custom vinyl art toy by Patrick Wong has been revealed today titled "Revolt Mickiv" which continues the theme of riot and rebellion characterized by much of his current artwork. The 8" tall commissioned artwork was created from a modified OG colorway of Arkiv Vilmansa's Mickiv figure originally produced by Visual Ark.

The "Revolt Mickiv" repositions the original figure and poses him to throw a molotov cocktail explosive at some unseen forces. Once again Patrick Wong takes up the iconic Molotov Man motif and reimagines him in combination with a vinyl figure.

The piece will join a privately curated collection of artist-interpreted Mickiv figures.

Check out more of his work online and visit his store to pick up some art.
