Meg Hunt lived by the ocean for a while, and then picked everything up to live in the hot desert. Her love of messes led her to printmaking, and she finds her inspired by old pieces of machinery, monster legends, outsider culture, pop influences, music, and many other random things. These inspirations spill out into strange worlds where monsters comingle with vagrants, bad habits become badges of courage, pretenders find friends, and generally just a lot of weirdness takes place.
