Constance Depler is one of those artists whose name you may not know, but whose artwork you’ve almost certainly seen once, twice, maybe countless times. She first gained recognition in the 1950’s with her signature style which personifies animals — most often dogs — and places them into playful and classy vintage vignettes.
Now in her 80’s, Constance continues to create, more recently as an acclaimed pet portrait artist. Amanda, Constance’s daughter, is breathing new life into her mother’s classic designs by rereleasing them in the form of useful and beautiful products for today’s art — and arf! — lover.
