THE ART & FLAIR OF MARY BLAIR


Mary Blair (1911 - 1978) is probably best known for her Alice & Wonderland work for Walt Disney as she was honoured as a Disney Legend in 1991. My favourite of her work is from the 1950's, old childrens books like "I can fly" and the work I have selected below...

Seeing that photo of Mary Blair has ruined my love for her books a little. She looks like a vampire in Buffy the vampire slayer
