Biography

Kajsa Flinkfeldt showed her artistic expressions early in life. As a child, she constantly occupied herself with a pencil and a sketch book. Her favorite subject was angels, and she drew them in every shape and form. As the years went by, her interest in the arts increased, and after ninth grade she spent two years at a school that would preapare her for a future career in the field of art. At the age of eighteen, Kajsa wanted to see the world, leading her to San Antonio, Texas, as a swedish exchange student. As a High School Senior, she had the opportunity to take several art classes where she learned about painting with acrylics and Berol Prisma Color pencils. Kajsa recieved numerous awards for her art.





The following years Kajsa took many commissions painting children and pets. In 1995 she enrolled at the Umeå Univerity, Sweden, and later she received her Bachelors degree in Fine Arts.





Kajsa is now working full time, teaching art to students aged 13-15, as well as ocasionally free-lancing for various companies and magazines. Recently, she discovered the fantastic world of fantasy and fairy art. Kajsa paints fairytales and fantasy as often as time allows. To her, it makes her feel almost as if she is back in her child-hood days, painting angels. Coming from a family with artistic genes, (her mother is an illustrator and her sister is a graphic designer) Kajsa is encouraged to persue her dream: to become a full time illustrator.
