Bio

Originally from Wisconsin, Meg moved to Arizona in 2018 where she works as an artist and graphic designer. She’s been drawing and creating art her whole life, majoring in both studio art and graphic design in college.

Meg works in a variety of styles and mediums. Her illustrations are usually done in pen, ink, and watercolor, but she also uses colored pencil to capture fine detail in her realism pieces. She often layers markers or ink into her colored pencil to create a richer depth of light and color that her work is known for. Much of her work is inspired by nature and animals, particularly horses, but her illustration also includes fantasy subjects of a more whimsical nature.
