A most absurdly excellent thing

Have a few minutes to kill before that hot date or weekend shindig? Check out the work of local artist Alexandru Sacui. His Web-based animated short anglais and digital graphic novel spanglais are both excellent ways to pass the time. The site itself is a bit on the conceptual side, and the navigation on spanglais may take a little getting used to, but the sheer absurd fun content makes the learning curve worth the effort.

Sacui is also the artist of Leni The Pug: The Comet Christmas Caper, an illustrated children’s book written by Keith Fiore and released late last year.
