Born in Perthshire.
Brought up on a smallholding, then a farm in Ayrshire, where I developed a profound love of the landscape
which has been my continuing inspiration.
Graduated from Edinburgh College of Art 1981 with BA (hons) in Drawing and Painting.
In 2005 I moved to the "East Neuk" of Fife .

Kirsty Kirkwood
Growing up in the countryside in Scotland developed Kirsty’s love of nature and wild things.
In Edinburgh School of Art she studied with Sir Robin Philipson, Elizabeth Blackadder and James Cumming. As a student she developed her already strong sense of draughtsmanship colour and composition always working in a variety of mediums.
While she was a student Kirsty worked as a shepherd on her mother’s farm on the South Ayrshire coast. This experience sharpened her awareness of landscape in its true nature, in all conditions of light, weather and mood.
Kirsty has developed her very personal vision of landscape in a series of current works in mixed media. Her grasp of mood and its expression in texture, composition, shape and colour genuinely reflects her qualities as a powerful artist of unique vision and skill.
