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!
