Title : JOHNNY HALLYDAY Artist : Alexandre Petrus Technique : Stencil, acrylic spray paint Support : Cotton canvas dimension : 61x46x2 cm year of creation : 2025 signature : Signed on the front with AP monogram authenticity : Comes with certificate of authenticity condition : Excellent --- ABOUT THE ARTWORK For this portrait, I wanted to capture not just the icon, but the man behind the legend. Johnny Hallyday is more than a symbol of French rock—he embodies a life marked by intensity, resilience, and raw emotion. I chose this particular pose because it reflects something rare: a moment of introspection, where charisma gives way to sincerity. The background blends layered greens and mineral textures, resembling oxidized metal and echoing the timelessness of his music. These textures were created instinctively to contrast with the precision of the stencil work, reinforcing the duality between the myth and the human being. Johnny’s face is sculpted through hundreds of meticulously cut details, revealing the depth of his gaze, the lines engraved by a lifetime on stage, and the unmistakable presence that followed him everywhere. The hand near his mouth brings vulnerability and reflection, a gesture that speaks to both contemplation and strength. This artwork will resonate strongly with collectors who appreciate portraits filled with personality, heritage, and emotional weight. It stands as a tribute not only to the performer but to the enduring cultural impact of a man who shaped generations. --- ABOUT THE ARTIST I’m Alexandre Petrus, a French stencil artist blending instinct and precision. I handcraft all my stencils and paint original artworks that merge pop culture, nature, mythology, and emotion. I create large murals across France, perform live paintings for weddings and corporate events, and develop series of unique canvases using my signature double-layer stencil technique. Each piece is entirely original — I reuse my hand-cut stencils, but every background is created spontaneously, making every artwork one of a kind. instagram : @alexandrepetrus.art site web : www.ap-art.fr --- SHIPPING The artwork will be carefully packaged and shipped in a sturdy, secure parcel, with tracking and insurance included.
