Life
[edit]Postma was born in Hoorn. She trained as an illustrator at the Free Graphics and Painting Department of the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. In 1976 she received a Gouden Penseel (Golden Brush) for her illustrations of Hans Christian Andersen's Sprookjes en vertellingen (1975); this was a prize awarded to talented new illustrators.
