How could I forget! (Whimsy Pt. 2)

The woman who started it all

Mary Blair

This is the woman who did a lot of the concept art for Disney and- what's that folks?- it's a small world. There are just far too many pieces of hers that I would like to include, but I have a hunch that once I started, I wouldn't be able to stop. So I'll just include the one above (from her trip to South America that concluded in the creation of "The Three Caballeros.")

Also...who doesn't want to be friends with this woman?

Whimsy

A couple of artists for you, my friends, that are full of extravagant whimsy:

Amy Sol

What I think I love most about her is that she includes animals in most of her paintings. Plus she paints on wooden panels. That's just awesome.

Nicoletta Ceccoli
While also whimsical, she's a bit darker. She's also obviously influenced by fairy tales, which I think is fabulous.
