Raggedy Ann. Watercolor, 4 x 4 140 lb. cold press paper. © 2013 Sheila Delgado
When I was about 7 years old, my cousin Anthony and I were Raggedy Ann and Andy for Halloween. I remember neither one of us was too happy about it. I am sure that was because we had to wear tights that had tape on them to make stripes. Then add the makeup and wig, and you are talking pure torture for a kid. But that is the price you pay for a sack full of free candy!
Painting this was pure fun. I really love the rough edge at the bottom. If I had tried to do that on purpose, you can bet it would have just been a hot mess. I Think this would make a great pillow. What do you think?
Check out the paint party, and enjoy!
This is ADORABLE!!! 🙂
Thank you Joan!
I was wondering who would be the magic # 9 today. Glad it was you. 🙂
Now I have Olivia Newton John’s song in my head – “You have to believe in magic!” That was on one of the first albums I ever bought. Thanks for the magic Sea! 🙂
