Art by Blue

Stian Andresen, also known as Blue (1984), is a Norwegian pop art artist from Ås.

He has been drawing since he was very young, and began experimenting with graffiti at the age of 14. He later earned a bachelor's degree in graphic design, which led to many years in the advertising industry, before he dedicated himself full-time to art in 2018. He has since become known for his massive and detailed artworks within Mixed Media Art.

For Stian, it's all about the passion and magic behind each painting, whether it's a message, a relationship, or a meaning that the customer can relate to or recognize. To achieve this, he mixes all colors himself from base colors. He adds various materials such as gold leaf, acrylic carvings, and epoxy. The paintings are also characterized by unique frames, various effects, and LED lights. All of his works are original.

Over the past few years, his customer base has expanded significantly. Stian's art can be found everywhere from art collectors and international artists to any home. What they all have in common is that all customers are equally important and have a passion for art.

"It is an honor and a great privilege to adorn the walls of so many around the world"
- Stian
