Los Angeles-based illustrator James R. Eads has an organic style that resembles Van Gogh's work. His awesome surreal illustrations are filled with subtle strokes and elegant forms.

When Chris McDaniel, a.k.a. The Glitch, saw James' work, he felt an instant connection with the artist. Chris contacted the illustrator with a request to animate his images. Eads was curious about the result and quickly agreed. The Glitch then applied his skills and transformed still images into hypnotizing swirling GIFs. Prepare to be mesmerized!
