MALIN KÄMPE
ABOUT ME
My inspiration comes from nature and all the wonderful colors we can find there. I strive for making my art expressive and a show stopper. The use of colors catches the eyes and the details makes you want to stop and have a closer look.
I am an educated engineer and work as a project leader within design. Painting is my passion in life so I really try my best to incorporate as much painting in my life as possible. I am as you call it “Self-taught”, but I don't really like that word. there is so much an education can do - I think it depends on the eagerness we have to learn and the passion we have creating art. Sure - I sometimes wish I attended some kind of art school - but the theory you learn there can be found in several other places. It just takes some time to sort out the good stuff.
I also have three wonderful children which takes the majority of my time outside working-hours so I have learned to be efficient throughout the years. Therefore, when contacting me - please have patience, I will answer as soon as possible.
I’m Malin Kämpe, an artist, and I have a true passion of creating art and beautiful things. I love color and nature, which is truly expressed within my artworks.
COMMISSIONS AND COLLABORATION
Let me create that artwork for you that you have been missing! That show stopper for your room inspired by nature!
I work with both companies and the private sector so if you have an idea of what you want - contact me and
we´ll work something out. You and I can work together to come up with just exactly what you want for your wall.
I also have experience in mural work so if you would like an original piece in acrylics straight on your wall, I am the woman for you.
