About MBSJQ
& Web3

MBSJQ is a UK-born automotive artist bridging reality and imagination.

Led by Jonathan Quintin, he has produced inspirational work for a myriad of esteemed clients across the globe, including Adobe, Aon/Manchester United, Auto Trader UK, Bosch, Google, Freddie Mercury Foundation, Intel, Mitsubishi Motors, Moscow Raceway, Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1, NBC Sports Network, Playboy, Tommy Hilfiger/Rafa Nadal, Uber, Rockstar Energy Drink, The Co-operative,VMware & Williams Racing F1 / Kraken.

Following his graduation in 1999, MBSJQ embarked on a fulfilling career as a Graphic Designer, rising from a Junior position to ultimately becoming a Creative Director. Over the span of more than a decade, he spearheaded teams of up to five designers, embracing the myriad challenges of the design industry. However, a pivotal moment arose in 2014 during a film shoot at a race track, catalyzing MBSJQ's courageous transition into freelancing.

This decision, albeit daunting, proved immensely rewarding. Freelancing granted Jonathan the freedom to pursue his artistic vision while maintaining a balanced work-life equilibrium. As his freelance career flourished, MBSJQ ventured into self-teaching 3D art in 2017, seamlessly merging his Graphic Design proficiency with newfound 3D skills to create a harmonious blend of surrealism and realism. Subsequently, MBSJQ was invited to join the prestigious H+ Creative Agency based in LA, enabling him to further refine his vibrant style and collaborate with leading global brands.

In 2020, MBSJQ delved into the world of web3/NFTs, channeling nearly all of his time into crafting personal works that seamlessly intertwine surrealism with automotive themes.

In March 2021, his piece 'Sweet Lullabies' was featured on BBC World.

MBSJQ's first collaboration was 'LOL' on SuperRare with cryptoart OGs Hackatao featuring Astro & The Universe, which went on to sell on the secondary market. MBSJQ went on to collaborate with Playboy, featuring 'Miami Dance,' which was exhibited at the Bitcoin Miami Conference and featured by Adweek & Forbes.

 

MBSJQ was approached to celebrate Freddie Mercury’s 75th birthday, where he created ‘Colorful Soul,’ and all proceeds from the auction went to fund AIDS research and education. Throughout 2021, MBSJQ was featured on billboards in LA, New York, & London. He also exhibited at Art Basel Miami and in Dubai, London, & Shanghai.
