Art Hero-Mary Blair





Mary Blair, an American artist, was employed by the Walt Disney Company. She designed the art and colours for "It's A Small World". I was surprised to learn that Walt worked with a team of designers, as I assumed he created all of the Disney concepts.

As you know, the original ride had such a 60's vibe to it. I love how the facade had a monochromatic, subdued palette, whilst the interior was bursting with saturated primary colours.
