This post about "Patrick Sluiter"

Patrick Sluiter is one of my favourite gif artists. He is a graphic designer with a focus in motion and 3D design, He graduated from State University of New York at Purchase with a Bachelor's in Graphic Design. He said "he will forever be influenced by the artists Charlie Harper and Guy Billout."

"Smooth, soft-hued and wistful characters make up the bulk of Patrick Sluiter’s portfolio, an aesthetic niche he’s cleverly carved to make them instantly recognisable. The New York-based graphic designer and illustrator uses unsaturated tones and satisfyingly rounded, rendered forms to convey an “atmosphere of silence”."

"Patrick makes his works in Cinema 4D, which he’s been using for two years, and finds inspiration in the work of other artists such as Geoff McFetridge, Alexy Préfontaine, Mike Lee, Thomas Hedger, Xavier Cardona and Liron Ashkenazi Eldar. Elements of each, from the liquid-like shapes to the expressive figures and pink hues, can be spotted as influences to Patrick’s work."

“All the animations grew from an idea of a lucid dream that seemed tangible, but would have a sense of abstraction. Some were more ‘out there’ than others but my favourite was a couple that have an outlet and plug prong for faces. There’s a clearly sexual undertone, but the goal was to show compatibility and the subtle motions you use to communicate to your significant other.”
