Saddo’s Joyously Sinister Drawings

Romanian artist Saddo's paintings and illustrations can't seem to settle on a single subject, lumping, twisting and piling various figures into an ADHD cacophony. With his illustrative, cartoonish style, Saddo creates juxtapositions that are at once dark and amusing, playing on the boundary between the funny and the sinister. We catch the figures brimming with laughter or running from danger, creating a Nightmare Before Christmas-esque sense of macabre, jolly horror. Take a look at some images courtesy of the artist.
