Catrine Näsmark

Who is Catrine?

Swedish artist and stagedesigner Catrine Näsmark's work is often characterized by her love of words, details, codes, play and humor. Catrine has a degree as scenographer from Danmarks Designskola, MA. She has her studio and gallery in Lidingö, Stockholm.

 

Catrine paints a large painting

My approach to painting

 Painting is my call 

She often paints what is or has been a part of her life. All the motorbikes or crazy cars she had and then sold have become paintings. A meeting or a story is painted. Portrait painting is also a large part of her artistry. Children as well as board professionals.

She has also held courses in portrait painting under the auspices of the National Museum. Although set design consumed her earlier days, Catrine soon left stage design to devote herself entirely to painting and portraiture. Her art has been exhibited at, among others, Stockholm's Ulvsunda Castle, Bromma Airport, Katarina church, and art galleries in Stockholm such as Konsthandel Couleur and Galleri Wallmark. Catrine is often commissioned to paint portraits of famous and unknown individuals including "The Most Powerful Woman of the Year" awarded by Veckans Affärer.

 Then I knew that this was my calling, my right place 

Others who have had their portraits painted by Catrine Näsmark include King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, whose artwork can be seen at the Royal Palace in Stockholm; the anniversary room. Catrine enjoys experimenting with acrylics, oil, wallpaper, photos, pencils, mosaics, even old toys in her studio, aiming to give them a new life in a completely new context. The scenographer in her still plays with texts, words and toys she finds at a flea market and wishes she could turn fairy tales into reality.

Personally

When Catrine was out traveling many years ago and her hand started shaking; the longing for the studio became all too great, then she knew that this was her calling, her right place.
