About
I am an artist and designer whose probably worked on something you’ve come into contact with, whether it was an ad on tv or a brand you interact with, but you won’t find most of that work here, instead you’ll see a more personal side of me expressed in my art and writing.
Welcome to my website, I have a blog I’ve been keeping for several years now, it acts as a living journal documenting parts of my life, take a look around, you might be able to find some pages I’ve hidden around the site, enjoy.
Wendy has received a Clio, a Webby, and an ADC Award, and her work is part of the permanent collection of the Joan Flasch Artists’ Book Collections. She has also earned recognition from the Society of Typographic Arts, The One Club for Creativity, and the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (IADAS).
In 2025, Wendy received a DCASE IAP Grant for her project Specimens, a science memory card game currently in development.
