Aleksandr Petrov is a Russian animator who frequently works with the Pascal Blais Studio in Canada. He is one of the most renowned paint-on-glass animators in the world.
Paint-on-Glass is unbelievably difficult to pull off successfully. The technique involves creating a picture on a pane of glass with pastel paints, photographing it, and then "animating" the picture by manipulating the paints with your fingers. Petrov's version of The Old Man and the Sea is even more astonishing than The Cow. I would vote for this one 1000X if I could.
