Kelly Durette & BitCandy Limited Pieces

5/1/13

A long, long time ago, like three weeks ago, we reached out to our Michelangelos in search of some sick-tastic art for our BitCandy merchandise store. Shortly after, we struck upon a genius idea, muahaha. Instead of picking just one design to print on our t-shirts and other collectibles, why not find and highlight talented artists from around the globe?  And hey...it doesn't even need to say BitCandy on it.  It's just like filter for cool art!

So we did just that. Besides, the whole intention of opening our online emporium of BitCandy themed merchandise is to create a store geared towards sharing and supporting Indie artists. And being that this is the first time we do something like this, we found something that will blow your mind out of the water.

Ladies, gents, bros, and dudettes, introducing to you the very talented Canadian-based Macabre artist Kelly Durette. We’re totally digging her grim and fiery flair. Kelly’s art is in a category of its own; let's call it a horror dimension of beauty. She turns death and illness into creative inspiration.  The more you sit and examine her work, the clearer her style becomes. It’s perfect for the edgy and forward thinking individual with refined morbid tastes.  So, to celebrate the launch of our online store, Kelly has collaborated with us to offer some of her exclusive pieces. For a limited time, you can wrap your hands on some Marilyn Monroe, a masked beauty, and a couple more head turning pieces. Here they are:
