WOODPEOPLE - HOT DOG POM POM



















This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.

Little ode to the acrobatic and entertaining basketball Harlem Globetrotters team ( I think their theme song fits best here) and the cheerleader scene in American Beauty. Great film.

WOODPEOPLE - HOLEYWOOD DIRECTOR



















This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.

Little ode to the great Spielberg, the obvious emptiness of Hollywood and still awesome Jurassic Park. I bet Steven only drinks lemonade while playing with action figures in his office.

WOODPEOPLE - ROCKABILLY BUBBLE BOY







































This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.

Together with my previous rockabilly waitress this grease boy here is a little ode to the Rockabilly/Rock 'n Roll era and greasy haircuts of Elvis and Johnny Cash. I think this song by Ruckus Tyler fits him perfectly.

WOODPEOPLE - ROCKABILLY SHAKE GIRL







































This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.

Little ode to the Rockabilly/Rock 'n Roll era-waitress. Very inspiring times with movies like American Graffiti or music like this one here from Charlie Feathers, nicely used in Kill Bill.

WOODPEOPLE - PRISONMAN








































This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show.

Instead of killing people this guy here is mostly killing time.
Little ode to the Coen Brothers' Oh Brother Where Art Thou and The Big Lebowski for the prison and bowling themes.

WOODPEOPLE - SPIELMAN







































This is part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for an upcoming solo show. This fella's name refers to the glockenspiel instrument below, but also to the main character in the fantastic Polanski movie, The Pianist. The brassband costume is on its turn a little ode to The Beatles.

Ode to a fantastic film, There Will Be Blood, and part of a new series: "WOODPEOPLE", for a new upcoming show of mine, based on a Playmobil toy and my Lumberjack illustration earlier.
