HELLO

My name is Stein Henriksen, and I’m a 30 year old graphic Designer based in Oslo Norway. I am currently a student at the University of Hertfordshire in Hatfield, United Kingdom.

HISTORY

Born in Trondheim, moved to Oslo at the age of 2, been living here at different places since then. Taught myself how to draw from comics and cartoons, and discovered that I loved it very early. Also I was lucky enough to grow up around a computer, so I spend most of my time in front of the monitors, using primarily Apple OS X and Windows, I also know my way around some Linux distros.

I paint alot, mostly with spraycans on legal walls, but I do alot of canvas work at home aswell. After Highschool I joined the army, and had an awesome time as a Weapons Assistant in the Royal Norwegian Airforce. and after that i did some jobs here and there, until I realized I wanted to go back to school, and do something awesome.

WHAT I CAN DO

I never touched a Mac before I started at Norges Kreative Fagskole, but I’ve al ways loved computers so it didn’t take me long to get accustomed to it, and the Adobe creative suite. I love working with vectors, so Illustrator is propably my best attribute, but I’m well versed in the other programs, like Photoshop and InDesign.

I’ve learned how to make and set up Company profiles, Logos, Posters, Book design, Packaging design and lots of other ways to use my craft, so I’m up for anything.
