Charley Harper Love

I’m a big fan of Charley Harper, an artist from Cincinnati, famous for his animal illustrations. I still regret having lost an old Louisville Zoo poster that I had in my loft space in Chicago (sorry, Z) back in the day.

Thanks to Todd Oldham and his book that was published a couple of years ago, Harper has been become increasingly popular. You can see Harper’s illustrations now in note cards, children’s books and even shoes! The latest— lovely accessories by Celine Women’s:
