THE ART AND FLAIR OF MARY BLAIR

This new book by John Canemaker explores the life and art of Mary Blair (1911-1978), one of Walt Disney's most influential artists, whose joyful creativity and exuberant color palette stamped the look of many classic Disney animated features (including ALICE IN WONDERLAND, CINDERELLA and PETER PAN) and theme park attractions, most notably the "It's a Small World boat ride. The amazingly prolific painter also enlivened the not-so-small worlds of children's books, magazine illustration, architctural decor, theatrical set design, and advertising.
