Portfolio Boxes

I've made portfolio boxes. There will eventually be an edition of 100, but right now I just have three. I plan to mail them to potential employers and make a special edition of 10 or 20 out of nice wood (with multiple wooden toys included) to be sold at my show in May. The box and toy are laser cut and engraved, and I'm looking into engraving on other merchandise as well, such as lighters and wallets.

There are 20 promo cards so far, I will probably add more as I complete work on my senior/la luz show. The last two images are the designs on the back which are different depending on whether the orientation of the front is horizontal or vertical.

HI Jessica, my name is Geizi you probably don't know, but I've seen you around Otis. First of all your work looks amazing can't wait for you senior show. I just wanted to ask you, where did you get the box laser engraved? I think that's a pretty cool idea and I've would do something like that for my portfolio as well. Keep up the good work
