Scott Musgrove was born in the South, raised in the Midwest, lived in the Pacific Northwest and then moved to the Southwest. After a childhood spent doing God knows what, he was sent off to the Big City to attend Columbus College of Art and Design in downtown Columbus, Ohio where he studied illustration and painting. After college, Scott moved to Seattle, Washington and drew comic books. His work has been published in Fantagraphics Books and he is a contributing cartoonist to various comic anthologies. His animated TV series Fat Dog Mendoza, (which airs almost everywhere in the world except the United States) brought him to Los Angeles to work with Cartoon Network Europe, Sony Wonder and Sunbow Entertainment.
Musgrove's work blends the bizarre comic book world of quirky, often grotesque characters against rich, vibrant, finely executed landscapes. He is influenced by the work of dead artists, Carlo Crivelli, Jan van Eyck and Hieronymous Bosch and the undead Donald Roller Wilson, Botero and Odd Nerdrum.
