Chloë Cheese (born 1952) is an English illustrator, painter and print-maker.[1][2][3][4]

Cheese was born in London, the daughter of artist and printmaker Bernard Cheese (1925-2013) and artist and illustrator Sheila Robinson (1925-1988). Her childhood was spent in Great Bardfield, Essex,[4] where her parents were among a group known as the Great Bardfield Artists.[5] She studied at Cambridge School of Art (now Anglia Ruskin University) and the Royal College of Art.[1]

Examples of her work are held in several public collections including those of Tate Britain,[3] Victoria and Albert Museum, and the Museum of London.[4] The Fry Art Gallery in Saffron Walden holds many of her works,[6] as well as those of her father.[7]

In 1985 the British Council included her work, and her name, in a travelling exhibition: "British Illustration from Caxton to Chloë".[1]

She has illustrated books including Antonio Carluccio's A Passion for Pasta (1993, BBC Books: ISBN 0563362545) and Walking the Bridge of your Nose, a children's poetry book selected by Michael Rosen (1994, Kingfisher Books: ISBN 1856972909).[4]
