    The image is a black and white pen drawing, but I can easily turn it into an Illustrator file if that would facilitate this process. I’ve never actually used After Effects before, so I’m looking for the simplest way to do this, if thats even possible. I would greatly appreciate any advice at all, because I don’t even know where to begin.
    Thanks

    Aharon has a tutorial on “animating a signature” (look in the podcasts area) that might be useful.

    I’ve also seen a video tutorial about growing vines. I can’t find it right now, but it uses “Stroke” to reveal an image. Essentially, you import the entire image, cover it, and then reveal it using masks.

    Hopefully someone else will be able to point you to it.
