It is difficult, very time-consuming and unrewarding.

If you really want to learn then get a simple animation like
the Golf animation posted recently by someone from Poland.

Load it into your wordprocessor or text editor and study carefully
what has been done to make the animation work.

That you should keep you busy for plenty of your immediate spare time.

Post your results here so that we can all criticise your efforts !  :-)

Best of luck,

Try something simple first. Try animating a dot or a 0. If you are
smart enough you can move on to bigger pictures.

Animating Icons ?  Yikes !
