Mau Cardoso
Mixing a love of cartoons and comics with naïve humour and vibrant colour palettes, Mau Cardoso creates wildly imaginative illustrations and witty animations for clients across Brazil and around the world. His characters range from the sly to the silly and his concepts from clever to crazy, but whatever Mau creates, it’s charged with energy and excitement.
The pandemic was a turning point for Mau and his creativity. An experienced graphic designer, he found work was drying up, so he started drawing and sharing his creations on social media. Soon, he’d built up a whole new set of clients in love with his illustrations, ideas, passion and collaborative approach.
Iconic visuals abound amongst Mau’s influences. Movies like Back to the Future and Star Wars. Villains like Jason Voorhees, Freddy and the Xenomorph. Arcade games like Streetfighter and Zelda. And cartoons by Hanna-Barbera and Warner Bros. He also loves the Brazilian comic legend Maurício de Souza – and not just because they share the same first name.
He has a degree in graphic design from UNIFTEC but constantly adds to his learning with courses in illustration, typography, 3D and more.
