About

My name is Jelena Twirbutt, and I am a graphic designer and illustrator. I was born and raised in Lithuania and go by the artistic name Spanguole, which means “Cranberry” in Lithuanian. Cranberries are a popular berry in northeastern Europe, known for their complex flavors—sweet, sour, and a little bitter, yet always invigorating.
My passions include my family, food, and travel. These elements inspire me as an artist and a design professional. I have 26 years of combined experience in graphic design and illustration, working on various projects for top international firms across Europe, Asia, and the United States. My expertise spans all stages of production, from conception to the final product.
I am a self-starter who can work independently or motivate a team. My skills include strong graphics and organizational abilities, a passionate curiosity, and a desire to find creative solutions to new challenges.
