Dendler’s drawings have appeared in numerous exhibitions, nationally and internationally, and have been published in dozens of magazines, publications and books.

Animal is an online literary magazine where artists of word and image “explore the ephemeral boundary between human and animal, publishing work that teeter on the divide between wild and domestic. We create a space where readers, viewers, writers, and artists expand the human experience by engaging their imagination with other creatures.”
