Let’s take a little break from paintings today to celebrate other aspects of Mary Blair’s talents. First, here are some Blair-designed handkerchiefs posted by our friend Dan Goodsell at the Mister Toast blog. And below is a never-before-published set of four 4″x4″ tiles designed, painted, glazed, and fired by Blair as a personal project. These tiles were submitted yesterday by a reader so it’s new to my eyes as well. The contributor prefers to remain anonymous, but I can assure you that he’s a terrific artist whose work we all know and love.
