Malmström was not only a poet, but also a painter who had received lessons from the famous church artist Robert Wilhelm Ekman. Malmström had painted the altarpieces of at least three churches, one of which is in Suodenniemi church. Malmström said that she also painted the altarpiece of Church of St. Lawrence, Vantaa in Helsinki, but it is generally considered to be the work of her teacher Ekman. Ingeborg Malmström was married since 1857 to the late Karl Robert Malmström.[2]
