ABOUT THE ARTWORK
“Paint Lovers” captures a pure and universal moment: the innocence of creation and the spontaneous expression of emotion.
Two children, absorbed in their own world, paint a heart on a wall — a simple gesture that becomes a powerful symbol of love, connection and authenticity. The scene evokes childhood freedom, where creation is instinctive, unfiltered and deeply sincere.
The dripping heart introduces a raw, urban aesthetic, contrasting with the softness of the figures. It reflects both the fragility and intensity of emotions — love that is being created, but also exposed.
The purple and blue tones create a calm yet emotional atmosphere, almost dreamlike. These colors soften the scene while reinforcing the poetic dimension of the artwork.
As in all my work, there is a dialogue between precision and spontaneity. The figures are meticulously crafted through hand-cut stencil layers, capturing fine details and expressions, while the background is built instinctively with textures and movements, making each piece unique.
This artwork is created using my signature double-layer stencil technique. The stencil is digitally designed, then entirely hand-cut before being painted with spray paint and acrylic. Each background is different, ensuring that every piece remains a one-of-a-kind original.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Alexandre Petrus is a French stencil artist whose work blends street art aesthetics, digital design and traditional craftsmanship. His stencils are digitally designed and then hand-cut with precision.
His artistic approach is based on the balance between control and instinct. The stencil brings structure and detail, while the background is created freely, allowing textures and emotion to emerge — a concept he defines as “originality in repetition.”
He has created murals across France and performs live painting for weddings and corporate events, bringing his artistic universe into real-life experiences.
All artworks are original pieces — no prints, no editions.
