I have now transitioned to full time freelance work. I like to help the community out here in northern New Mexico with print ads, promotional marketing, email blasts, banners, brochures, and many other random graphic needs.
I also had my duties at the gallery with the national & local ads/social networking/inventory/web design and maintenance/newsletters/email blasts/selling/hanging /event organizer and well everything but the books. We were the second oldest gallery in Taos. Total Arts Gallery, Inc: We closed in 2019 making it to our 50th year in business before closing on our own terms. Our business mode l was not adaptable to the massive changes in the art market that has taken place over the last 10 years and it was not my dream. I was there to help the folks for as long as I could.
I am a bonafide dog freak and animal lover, believer in keeping it simple and truly grateful to be able to live here in Northern, New Mexico!
I spent my youth in a sleepy town in Ohio where my dad worked, and for a time, owned his own paper (him & mom) and also where he eventually retired as the editor. I essentially grew up sleeping on the floor at the newspaper where I helped get the weekly paper out. It was perfect.
Although my degree is in graphics, I spent the last 7 years as a full time assistant director in our family gallery in Taos, New Mexico. I also am an "on call" for the pagination and ad departments at The Taos News where I get my newspaper fix on. There is nothing like the pace of a newspaper to me.
I have to say I am "old school". I love the press work, just love it.

the normal stuff done right.
emily WILDE | a breif "about me"
The "Down and Dirty" of graphic design is in fact that not everything we produce will be some ground breaking incredible work of art and function. In fact most work is not. Even if you have the skills and talent, it is up to the client to have the means and the trust to allow you to do whatever you feel is right. In the meantime we work. I love the work. The good, the bad and the ugly. My online portfolio consists of just that.
