Born in 1962 in Poland.  In 1987 graduated with MA in Fine Arts from the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow. He is a painter, a print maker and a graphic designer. Currently lives in Westerham, Kent. 

Since coming to the UK in 1996 he has been busy creating, exhibiting and successfully selling his work. To date he had over 160 exhibitions, of which 131 in the UK; in, for instance, the Barbican Centre, the Gallery 27 and the Arndean Gallery in London's Cork Street and the Museum of Lancashire among others. He takes portrait commissions and has been a family portrait painter for a number of years for Fred Olsen (of Fred Olsen Cruise Liners). Since 2002 he has been an Artist in Residence in Regent's Park. This year (2009) he has started working with the National Trust as their resident artist for the South East region.

In his landscapes and gardens Kaldowski wants to share with us a unique atmosphere of a moment when he saw a particular view. This was recognised, for instance, by an Award that he received in 2000 for 'Expressing the Essential Spirit of Holland Park'.

But he has also received other numerous awards, e.g. 2006 - Main Price Winner - editor's choice 'The Artist Magazine', and in the same year Nina Hosali 1st Price - Free Painters & Sculptors Society. 

In addition to the above, for a number of years, he has been creating paintings that are illustrations to the classical music. In 2000 he completed an enormous (22 metre by 1.5 m) frieze inspired by Vivaldi's music, entitled - "Four Seasons Four Stages of Life", which is shown life as part of the classical performances of Polish National Radio Orchestra and has been featured on Polish National TV. Following this he has recently completed four annexes to this frieze to accompany the Piazzolla's version of the Four Seasons, and was commissioned to prepare a separate triptych to commemorate Year of Chopin in 2010, which will be shown on stage during recitals by prominent pianists. The paintings and musical art forms perfectly complement each other, creating an exceptional entwined performance and adding an additional dimension to the spectator's experience.
