William Blamire Young

William Blamire Young, commonly known as Blamire Young, was an English/Australian artist who painted primarily in watercolour. In 1911 he held an exhibition at Melbourne of small pictures, some of which had similar qualities to the Japanese coloured wood-cuts of the eighteenth century. He was commissioned by the Postmaster-General of Australia, Charles Edward Frazer, to produce new designs for the first Commonwealth of Australia stamps. This design was first issued on 2 January 1913 and continued to be in use till 1935 concurrently with other stamps. In 1976 he was honoured on a postage stamp issued by Australia Post for his work as designer of the first Australian postage stamp.
