Kirsty Greenwood illustration

With an illustrative mindset, I am motivated by ephemeral visual misunderstandings. Using the phenomenon of pareidolia, I work by hand on homemade marbled papers, to create illustrations and designs with detail and narrative.

My work has been featured or commissioned by publishers such as Blue Unicorn Poetry, Jayhenge Publishing, Broken Eye Books, Baffling Magazine, Illustrated Worlds, Last Girls Club, San Antonio Review, Wyngraf, 1455 Lit Arts, Etherea Magazine, The Bagel Hole, Diet Milk Magazine, Mud Season Review, Metaphorosis Magazine, and Fusion Fragment to name a few.

‘Metamorphosis’, the fabric design I created for and in collaboration with The Monkey Puzzle – Tree art fabrics and wallcoverings,  was the winner of ‘Best in British Product Design’ at the Hotel Designs Brit List Awards 2021.
