MIKI KIRILLOV
illustrations / prints / graphic designer
Miki Kirillov (mikix illustration) is a San Francisco–based illustrator originally from Japan. After studying Basic Design at Musashino Art University in Tokyo and working as a graphic designer, she now works as a freelance illustrator alongside her boss cat, Nyaco.
Through her playful cat illustrations, she explores themes of child development, family love, and DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging).
She creates art prints, greeting cards, and other paper goods, bringing her illustrations to life through locally produced risograph printing in San Francisco. With a focus on small-batch, locally made creations, she shares her work at local art markets and through wholesale partnerships with independent shops. Her work has also been featured in exhibitions at local cafés, connecting her art with the vibrant San Francisco community.
