Artist. Designer. Freelancer. Mom.
In addition to freelancing from home, I’m now running an Etsy shop! I’m specializing in embroidery hoops with my unique designs. Embroidery is a new art form for me, but it has been really fun to learn the different types of stitches (by watching YouTube tutorials, haha). I hope you’ll check out my shop: etsy.com/shop/ReneeWilcoxDesigns.
As I have been having job interviews, I have been putting together portfolio books to leave with employers. The books are about 30 pages long and contain my best work. I used Japanese stab-stitch binding to make them. I also created a little pocket on the inside cover which contains my resume and business card. Then I made a small sleeve to go around the book. I think it is all-together a neat little package. 🙂
I’ve been working on a group project with 3 of my friends and fellow graphic designers. We are developing the brand and touchpoints for a hypothetical company named “Seven Natural Hair Essentials.” We’ve had our ups and downs with this project, but I truly appreciate everything that these guys have put into it. We work very well together and each of us has a unique perspective that we bring to the table. SO, to show my appreciation, I made these pen and watercolor bookmarks for them. I also gave them fruit snacks.
