McQueen grew up on a sheep and beef farm in Purangi, Taranaki. She began painting with oils at the age of 10, studied landscape architecture and combines designing with her passion for painting. An exhibiting member of the Stratford Art Society, McQueen paints in oils from life as much as possible, or from quick sketches that give her inspiration for future paintings and compositions. Taunt grew up on a farm just out of Stratford. She learnt to ride a motorbike and milk cows by the age of 10 and later she followed her other passion, photography. Taunt completed a Bachelor of Applied Arts (Visual Arts and Design) in 2016 and returned to Stratford where she is Gallery Assistant at Percy Thomson Gallery.
