Dixie Yelvington, Billings, Montana Artist and Graphic Designer.

Hello

While primarily a graphic designer, I also produce unique portraits and other artistic services. I especially enjoy collaborating on a variety of artistic projects.

Yoga and aerial arts became a large part of my life while working at the YAM as a graphic designer and marketer. I love connecting with groups and the creation of the YAM’s Masquerade Party, a “big city” experience, has sold out every year since its inception in 2015. As a performer, graphic designer and painter, I enjoy creating and being involved with my community in a deeply artistic way.

What I Do

Add Your Past Experiences

Museum Marketing and Public Relations Coordinator
(2014 – 2018)
I was in charge of branding and design creation for a wide variety of projects for the Yellowstone Art Museum (YAM). It was wonderful to have my job focused on getting people to come and enjoy art. I managed a variety of marketing budgets and purchased and built ads and sent press releases for the YAM’s ever changing exhibitions. I still stay involved with this fantastic museum here in Billings!

Print Shop Customer Services Representative and Graphic Designer

Insty-Prints of Butte was great experience and allowed me to learn the ins and outs of print design and I often had the opportunity to work on jobs start to finish for clients. This has giving me an edge on knowing what print shops can offer and how to best communicate with with them to the get the print results I want.
