About
Katy Stone is an artist and illustrator whose work is centered on the emotional depth of human portraits and the atmospheric beauty of Scottish landscapes, rendered in striking black and white ink pointillism. Her unique perspective is shaped by a rich background in ecology and conservation, holding a bachelor’s degree and having worked as a ranger, wolf handler, and horticulturalist. This connection to the natural world deeply influences Katy’s art, imbuing it with a raw, emotive power that captures the essence of both the human and natural realms.
Embarking on a creative path after a successful career that bridged fashion design and environmental stewardship, Katy has collaborated with notable entities like MTV, Universal Music, and the British Museum. Her designs have been featured in Vogue and Cosmopolitan, and she has contributed educational designs to CGP revision guides. The pandemic prompted a pivotal shift in Katy’s career, steering her towards a full-time commitment to art and illustration, driven by a passion for creating work that truly resonates.
Now, with 4 years of illustration and 9 months of professional artistry under her belt, Katy continues to explore the intersection of human emotion, natural beauty, and humor through her art. Her journey from the wilderness to the canvas highlights a dedication to storytelling that celebrates the complexity of life and nature.
