Thomas Kuebler
I’ve been meaning to post about Thomas Kuebler’s sculptures for a while now.
He uses what I can only call “grotesque realism” to make these eye catching, monstrous creations.
Kuebler states: “I want to tell wild stories in a single three-dimensional portrait and literally flesh out a biography with hair, clothing, trinkets, teeth and fingernails, etc.”
And he certainly does!
You will see Witches & Wisemen, Beggars & Freaks, Monsters & Madmen, Classics & Legends!
One of my favorites, Dr. Nighty Night (click here for details).

Yikes! These actually startled me upon opening this post. The first one looks like a demonically possesed Tina Louise.

Oh wow…great call on possessed Tina Louise!

Oh lord this is an absolute riot! They’re so incredibly lively. A lot more convincing than some Madame Tussauds inspired waxworks I’ve seen!

Absolutely! I’ve been to many a wax museum, and have NEVER seen anything this amazing in the chamber of horrors.

If monsters come hunting these are the ones that come! Indeed wonderfully real. I can actually see these souls in our population! I will never say ‘Nighty Night’ again! Or…maybe I will with a wink

Dr. Nighty Night is one of my all time favorite “monstrous” sculptures! So insanely well done and creepy.

“I FEEL PRETTY, OH SO PRETTY…”

That just made me laugh out loud.
