I am Alexandre, a figurative painter based in Lyon, France, working at the intersection of tradition and modernity.
My work focuses on « casual realism, » where I transform everyday moments into meaningful, poetic art, highlighting the beauty in the ordinary.
I also specialize in medical painting, capturing surgeons in the operating room—a subject inspired by my father, a now retired medical engineer.
My passion for painting comes from my parents, both artists, who instilled in me a love for art and a commitment to the craft. Whether depicting daily life or the precision of surgery, my goal is to blend technique and emotion to create art that resonates.
I work closely with my clients, starting with an initial consultation, then taking reference photos in real-life settings. From these, I create a one-of-a-kind painting that reflects something personal and lasting.

The commission process
Initial Consultation
We’ll discuss your vision and preferences to shape the project according to what you want and what will look best.
Reference Gathering
I’m a field painter, meeting my subject in his everyday life or the operating room to take and reference, to tailoring them to the project.
Unique Creation
From those field observations and experience, I'll craft a unique reference that will inspire a one-of-a-kind painting.
