Gunnar Kaj has achieved great success as a floral artist, with numerous exhibitions and decoration assignments in castles, parks and museums – in Sweden and abroad. Fourteen Nobel banquets are also on his list of achievements.

Before his floral career, he was active as an illustrator for a long time. Now he is rekindling his passion for drawing and painting. His interest in plant life and organic forms lives on in his art.
