Disney Illustrator Mary Blair





































































I remember when i was a child having a big fat Disney story book. I used to love copying the illustrations over and over again. Mary Blair was an illustrator who worked for Disney in the 50's (more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Blair) and was responsible for many of the illustrations in the Disney portfolio. I love her stylised illustrations. They are colourful and vibrant and beautifully composed. Every character is delightful. You can see more of her work at http://www.animationarchive.org/2006/01/media-mary-blairs-little-verses-part.html
