Time to isolate another panel from the comics to celebrate its stand-alone beauty. This panel from the newspaper comics of 1912 looks more like an elegant kid's book illustration.
Amazing to think this was a newspaper panel. I thought he was the illustrator for Raggedy Ann and Andy, but I checked to be sure, and of course, he is. I love the fairies, and goblins, and such, and the little rodent like creatures. It makes me want to read what the panel was all about. Was there text with it?

People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.

Hi Annie,
There would've been text that ran beneath the panel, but I don't have that.
marvelous
