Andrew Ohlmann is creating lovely animated gifs in his signature bold illustrative style, and each looping piece of art is mesmerizingly clever. His imagination has conjured up unnerving imagery that must be seen: hands with wavy knuckles, people with continuously peeling skin, and eyes that just won’t stayed glued to the head they’re on. It’s weird and wonderful stuff.

Ohlmann has eschewed the current trend of gargantuan 50 frame animated gifs, refreshingly sticking to as few as 7 hand-illustrated frames to convey each pieces’ motion. Here, style trumps the need for smooth transitions and perfectly blends with his style of illustration. I like that.
