About this work

The image showcases a figurine that appears to be a character with a distinctive gothic or punk aesthetic. The figurine has a large, round head with exaggerated features, including wide eyes and a prominent mouth. It is dressed in a black outfit adorned with red and white designs, possibly resembling tattoos or graffiti. The character is wearing a black cap and has long, black hair. Its arms are outstretched, and it has a pair of white gloves with black detailing. The figurine stands on a base, which is not fully visible in the image. The overall design suggests a rebellious or edgy theme.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. Once upon a time, there lived a naughty, concupiscent puppet whose only dream was to be a human in real life. Being the mischievous marionette he was, he knew that the only way to have his wish granted was to do good deeds. "I want to be a real boy", he muttered with his hands clasped tight as he went to bed every night. Then came one fine morning... In his snug nightcap and colorful pyjamas, he climbed out of bed and slipped into his fluffy slippers. As he was doing his usual morning stretch in front of the bedroom mirror, he suddenly felt a weird bulge growing between his legs. To his WOOD surprise, he realised that his biggest fantasy was finally coming true. He grinned to himself and lived happily ever after, as a human boy.
