Rachel Ryle

Self-taught artist Rachel Ryle has earned every bit of recognition she has received for her innovative social media posts. Her use of illustration and animation make all other Instagram videos pale in comparison. How does she do it? Think of her process as a mix between flannelgraphs and a flip book (“Meet The Artist”).

*Update: Coffee lovers! Go grab this cortado illustration as an iOS Sticker for iMessage!! It's in my Coffee Pack along with 14 other coffee loving Stickers! Link in my bio!* You say Gibraltar, I say Cortado! My favorite drink has two names depending on the coffeeshop that you order it from. No matter which name you call it, let's just drink & enjoy some coffee! Cheers coffee lovers, this one's for you! PS I have mad respect for you baristas out there. Making latte art is a challenge, even with colored pencils! I tried my best but simply can't compete with your talents! #stopmotion #animation #art #drawing #instavideo #coffee #espresso #latte #latteart #cortado #dailycortado #gibraltar #barista #espressomachine #coffeeshop #cafe

For the love of sushi! You may recall a couple years ago I made a new year’s resolution to eat healthier and I posted a sushi animation as motivation. Well, years have passed and I needed another reminder. Good thing eating healthy can still be fun! Here’s to a yummy & healthy 2016! PS to friends who are watching in Japan, I hope you find my hidden message to you! Thanks for the inspiration! 😉 #stopmotion #animation #art #drawing #sushi #japan #japanese #food #bento #bentobox #panda #pandabear #instavideo #cooking #lunch #lunchtime #fbf

Welcome to New York! I took as many of your suggestions that I could & crammed them into this animation. From Broadway to bagels & taxis to the ferry these are things we love about New York! I hope you enjoy this piece as I'm enjoying my time in the city! PS @taylorswift if you see this, I absolutely love this song by you! It fully inspired this animation & I've been playing it non-stop since I arrived in New York. Thanks for it! #WelcomeToNewYork #taylorswift #stopmotion #animation #art #drawing #nyc #newyork #newyorkcity #travel #statueofliberty #empirestate #coffee #bagel #taxi #ferry #broadway #theater #citylights
