designed by Monika Mitkute

Lithuanian artist Monika Mitkute has been living and working in Ireland, Co. Dublin, since 2006. She currently enjoys working as a finisher artist – a position she is holding since autumn 2008. Monika also gets a first chance there to learn how to use Adobe's Creative Suite. She points out that before that she was working as a cleaner in a 9-storey building where she used to clean toilets for a living. That's when she came to the conclusion that she should try everything to achieve her personal goal of working in the creative industry where she can finally focus on her passion that is drawing.

We salute her and simply love the badges she created – especially the winning tea-drinking cat... 8)
