Meet KMG - a renowned artist, illustrator, printer, and mural painter proudly based in Edinburgh, Scotland. For over a decade, she’s been brightening streets and spaces across the UK and beyond with her bold, character-driven murals and eye-catching street art.

​

Deeply inspired by the rich storytelling traditions of Northern Scotland, KMG brings Celtic folklore and local legends to life through playful illustrations and murals. Her work revives forgotten tales, reconnecting us with Scotland’s landscapes, identities, and histories in fresh and unexpected ways.

​

Using deceptively simple characters, KMG weaves together themes of mythology, community, and belonging. Each of her vibrant creations invites you into a larger conversation - about heritage, identity, and the voices that often go unheard.

​

KMG’s signature style is unmistakable: bold lines, quirky recurring characters, each with their own personality, humour and heart. It’s work that feels both familiar and surprising - equal parts cheeky, raw, and deeply thoughtful. There’s always more than meets the eye, often leaving you with a knowing smile or a moment of reflection.

​

KMG is passionate about using art to empower others. She regularly collaborates with community groups, schools, and healthcare providers to run hands-on visual storytelling workshops - helping people of all ages explore their own heritage and stories through art.

 

We’ve been absolutely thrilled to collaborate with KMG as part of Stockbridge Social. Her vibrant illustrations capture the spirit of our four key pillars - food, drink, local entertainment, and community - bringing them to life with colour, character, and creativity. Through her work, KMG beautifully celebrates the heart of Scottish heritage and connection.
