Ehem.
MARY BLAIR.
If you're not familiar with her, get hep, kid:
In short, Mary Blair was best known for her work as an animator for Walt Disney, but later went on to do graphic design and illustration. Surely you recall those Little Golden books from childhood, oui? Those are what I remember her for.
Oh my word. Everything about her aesthetic appeals to me. What a blessing upon the world, mais non?
She did so much wonderful work; it took great restraint to post only the handful of examples above. Thanks Mary!

i confess myself entirely charmed by these. and by you, as it so happens.
A little smile? No, a great, big, wide-eyed, rapturous face full of delight! That was like drinking a monster sized cup of the most delicious hot cocoa topped with tons of whipped cream.
Franks for sharing, my dear!
I discovered Mary's drawings today thanks to Google and I love them! they are so beautiful and happy.
This art is freaky and not great
Simply lovely!
Wonderful selection!!! I loved Mary Blair for years before even knowing exactly who I was loving :)
Love these. Makes me happy looking at them. What a mind she had.
