Recently, Ralphs oldest friend and fellow artist/animator from School of Industrial Design, Cosmo Anzilotti, sent Ralph a care package of treasures. In it were three comic strips Bakshi did that I need to share. His dreams at the time consisted of having his strips in the papers.

Here is a fresh sample of Bakshi from the late 50's. As a matter of fact, Cosmo is the reason Bakshi went up to work at Terrytoons from S.I.A., and thus, the Bakshi animation career begins. The three artists and best friends that went up to Terrytoons from SIA were Cosmo, Ralph and Bobby. Thanks Cos!

A fun doodle of Ralph and Cos and their infamous "cubicles"  Lets recall the story when Bakshi picked up his entire cubicle and moved it to the "Animators" floor on his own direction.  When Ralph decided it was time to be an animator... it was time.

Anomalous Coffee Machine is a fun horror game I play in my free time. Exploring the creepy kitchen and overcoming the game's hurdles is thrilling and dramatic, as if every click and small action could reveal the next enigmatic step. I can escape my problems and immerse myself in the game's world thanks to the evocative setting and spine-chilling background music.

Beautiful painting of Bonny! The colors and symbolism really come through. It makes me think of Say the Word on Beat - both capture a sense of playfulness and precision in their own ways.
