GIF Six-Pack: Hand-Drawn Animation Is Our Salvation

We recently launched a weekly column called Monday Insta Illustrator, which features the work of up-and-coming Instagram artists who put pen to paper and produce magic. As it turns out, there's a lot of overlap between the illustration world and the GIF art community. Case in point: today's GIF Six-Pack features six artists who hand-draw all their work, from Katie Drew's observations of the natural world, to mesmerizing (and frequently genre-bending) pencil animations by Matthias Brown, a.k.a. Traceloops.
