Wow, this sounds so interesting (both the artist and your workshop. I wonder if you'll do it again, I can't attend this session, but I'd love to participate...) I recently read a book called The Queens of Animation by Nathalia Holt that covered the role of women artists in the Disney world. I will need to go back and read it again to see what it says of Mary Blair. And...the illustration you showed from a children's book in 1964, at that time I was just learning to read in 1st grade, and this illustration reminds me of so many of the books from that time - I wonder if I read a Mary Blair illustrated book? Anyway, this was a familiar style to me from that time.
