Formalistic Fantasia by Ashley Alvarez

This collection has drawn inspiration from a wonderful concept illustrator named Mary Blair. As an independent working mom in the 50’s, she took inspiration in the world around her and incorporated her vision of magic and fantasy into her work. “Formalistic Fantasia” was sparked by her work from The Walt Disney Animation Studio for Cinderella, Peter Pan, and Alice in Wonderland. Her talent in colors and simplistic geometric illustrations paved a new way of illustrating. This collection incorporates her key sense of colors and shapes to tell the story of fantasy.
