Hello, I’m Mosa.
I am a creative illustrator and designer living and working in the central area of London. Originally I'm from Lithuania, however, after my graduation of graphic design in 2009 I decided to step further and in 2011 I moved to London, UK, in order to advance my illustrative career, gain new skills and expand the creative network. Next year, in 2012, I started two years painting course at Rosetta Art Centre, East London.
So far I worked on projects for major brands like Facebook, BBC, TISSOT, PWC, NHS England, DHL, NOKIA, British Airways, BP, Deloitte and helped more than a couple of dozens of smaller startups, animation studios and design agencies with a variety of different illustrative projects.
My creative approach - is to find points of tension behind the idea I’ve been assigned or am interested in. I do several iterations on each point and usually end up refining the one I find most controversial.
