Wendy Wilson
Wendy spent her childhood in suburban New Jersey where she spent hours exploring the forest adjacent to her home. She has taken pictures since she could hold a camera and worked in every medium available taking art classes from grammar school to college at Rhode Island School of Design.
Wendy majored in illustration at RISD where she also took additional classes in filmmaking and graphic design. Her love of movies continued to grow thanks to the repertory cinemas of Providence, Rhode Island.
After graduation, Wendy worked in advertising, magazine, and book design. Her illustrations have appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times Book Review, and other publications.
She has most recently worked as a Senior Art Director at Showtime Networks in New York City. Wendy has won multiple awards for key art, branding, and press kit design.
