Tanqiu Zhang
(She/Her)
Tanqiu Zhang is a Chinese illustrator currently based in Cambridge. Before joining this course, she studied Art Education and taught art at a secondary school. A growing desire to illustrate her own stories eventually led her to leave teaching. She then took a two-year gap to travel the world. Being inspired by natural and different people, she began her journey as a children’s book illustrator.
Often perceived as quiet and inward-looking, Tanqiu holds an adventurous spirit in heart. She aspires to create stories that are whimsical, humorous, and richly imaginative—stories that bring a smile to both children and adults, while always remaining a genuine source of joy in her own creative life.
