Paint on glass

Here's an animation I did for an experimental animation course. It was done by painting on glass with water-based oil paints and smudging the paint between frames. It was actually one of the easiest animations I've done, despite appearances. I got to fingerpaint and feel like a kindergartener again. It probably took me a total of fifty hours to complete. 

Here's a link to the Edgar Allen Poe poem I based the animation on.
