It's the question I get most — and my honest answer surprises people: I don't chase one.
I get bored fast. The second I feel myself repeating an aesthetic, I lose the thread. So instead of building a signature look, I build a new answer for every brief — shaped by what the brand needs to sell, not what I feel like making that week.
Versatility isn't a lack of direction. It's the direction.
Super work, Victor

I love trout fishing! It's my passion, where time flies, and I can disconnect from the everyday world and reset my creative juices.
I had the chance to design a logo for a local fishing contest that my friends are running, and here are the two logo variations I came up with.
LŽK stands for "Lithuanian Fishing Battles," and the concept behind it was to combine two fish heads in the negative space to form the letter Ž, as it's the first letter of the Lithuanian word for "fish" (žuvis)

Brand design has been really fun lately.
Here's a glimpse of a few recent projects, as I try to find the time to build out full portfolio pieces. 😅
That resort mark moving into the pool shot sells the whole mood in two seconds flat, Jitter was clearly worth learning. Is the portfolio backlog piling up because paid work keeps winning out, or is it more the classic struggle to make time for your own stuff?
Read/Design is a personal project that started as a way to keep my curiosity about design alive. Think of it as a digital library built from the books I've collected over the years. The idea is to share, every month in an Instagram post, the insights that stuck with me the most, with the goal of spreading knowledge and encouraging the reading of physical books.
Since sharing your process is the thing now, here's how this came together: I designed the graphics and website myself in the old-fashioned way, but the site itself was built in Claude Code with a Notion database behind it. Huge respect for developers. This build cost me two migraines and way too many tokens.
