As an artist, I do have to admit: we make up most of that stuff as we go along. ^_^; For a lot of artists, we have these awesome ideas about a character, how they should look, what adventures they'll have... but we only have a vague idea of their background, their parents, etc. Personally, and in the case of some of my friends, there are a lot of details I don't make up until they're asked about. With some of that, it's like "Oh yeah... I guess I really didn't think about that before!" :sweat:
That's not to say this is the case with every artist, but a lot of us let the story make itself up as we go.
