Tjitske Kamphuis is a self-taught artist and illustrator. Her very favorite things to draw are the weather, the shapes of clouds and trees, the changing seasons and animals in their habitats.
Tjitske grew up in the Netherlands, where she played in the countryside, cycling and boating
along canals and looking after a large collection of pets and wild animals. She always finds
inspiration in travelling, long walks and looking at the sky. Today she lives in Canterbury, UK
with her husband and twin sons. I'm a Cloud is Tjitske's author illustrator debut.
