ABOUT THE ARTWORK
“The Jay” captures the elegance and alert presence of this distinctive bird.
Often associated with intelligence and curiosity, the jay is known for its sharp gaze and expressive posture. Perched on a branch, the bird appears both calm and attentive, embodying a quiet moment of observation in nature.

The vibrant orange and red background creates a strong visual atmosphere, reminiscent of autumn tones and forest light. Layers of paint were applied instinctively to build texture and movement, contrasting with the precise stencil lines that define the bird’s detailed plumage.

The composition was created using my double-layer stencil technique. The design was first developed digitally and then meticulously hand-cut before being applied with spray paint and acrylic. This process allows for a highly graphic rendering while preserving the organic energy of the painted background.
The piece merges natural observation with the visual language of street art, transforming a simple wildlife scene into a bold contemporary artwork.

This is a unique, original artwork. Even if the stencil may reappear in future works, each background remains entirely one of a kind.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Alexandre Petrus is a French stencil artist blending street art aesthetics with digital design and traditional craftsmanship. He designs his stencils digitally before printing and carefully hand-cutting each layer.

His artistic process is based on the balance between precision and spontaneity. The stencil represents structure and control, while the background is painted instinctively, creating movement and depth — a philosophy he calls “originality in repetition.”

He has created murals across France and performs live painting for weddings and corporate events, bringing urban art into both public spaces and private celebrations.

All artworks are original pieces — no prints, no editions.

Seller's Story

French stencil artist, I offer here original works entirely handmade. Each painting is created on canvas using stencils that I draw and cut out myself, then reinterpreted on unique and spontaneous backgrounds. My work draws inspiration from pop culture, mythological figures, artistic icons, and contemporary characters, with an aesthetic blending street art and contemporary art. All artworks for sale are unique pieces (no editions, no reproductions), signed and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. I ship each work with the utmost care, in a secure and tracked package, to France and internationally.
