It's obvious now you've explained it.
Pretty neat! Based on how it's one foot stays down and slides around, I'd guess there's a few magnet tricks going on. Maybe a magnet behind the canvas allows for precise movement? Could also be special ink that shows up when painted on with water or another chemical, so the drawing is pre-made and then just selectively revealed. But... the brushing looks pretty real! So yeah, I think my answer is "lots of magnets." Great trick!
I think the answer is that it's a hand puppet. It's leg doesn't leave the table because there is an arm up it. The whole set-up to make that work is very impressive.
