Chris Judge, an artist and illustrator based in Dublin, Ireland, has a unique talent for transforming the ephemeral beauty of clouds into whimsical characters that capture the imagination. His project, “A Daily Cloud”, began during the first Covid-19 lockdown as a way to focus on the natural world and find joy in the simple things. With his daughter’s photography as inspiration, Judge started sketching playful lines onto images of clouds, turning them into charming creatures that resonated with people across social media.
This creative endeavor not only brought smiles to many but also led to the creation of calendars and prints, sharing a bit of magic and creativity with the world. Judge’s work, including his collaboration with Eoin Colfer on the picture book “Cloud Babies,” showcases his ability to see the extraordinary in the ordinary and reminds us all to look up and find our own shapes in the sky.
