It looks like you mentioned WinForms so I'll address that. Yes animation is possible but in general it's going to be a bit of work.

There appears to be an implementation of a general purpose animation framework (although limited) over on CodeProject. In the comments schallos posted a better implementation of the reflection code using expression trees.

The general principle is:

• Use a PictureBox so you get double buffering
• Use a timer control to control repainting (calling Invalidate() on your PictureBox)
• You'll probably want to add some easing into the animation so it appears smoother; a bit of acceleration added to it when the user clicks goes a long way.
