About this work

A figurine that appears to be inspired by traditional Japanese art. The figurine depicts a woman dressed in a kimono with intricate patterns. She has a black hairdo adorned with decorative elements. The woman is seated on a large snail shell, which is also decorated with patterns. The overall design and attire suggest a blend of traditional Japanese aesthetics with a whimsical touch.Born into the greyness of England at the end of the Seventies, by the age of four Jon-Paul Kaiser knew that what he wanted to do in life was a draw. From that point he rarely strayed from that path; scribbling and doodling his way through School, College and University. After working with Porlzilla, Jon-Paul decided to go it alone concentrating at first on the toy customization scene, building up a name and strong reputation for himself with his stark Black & White custom style, influenced by comic book art, film noir & Ukiyo-e prints. This lead to him being approached by established toy producers for designs for their platform toys. Principally amongst these are Toy2R who have released numerous JPK Platforms.
