Self-taught draftsman and painter, Olivier Payeur has two interests: the human figure and composition. The human figure, the body for its moving architecture; composition for the sensitive effect that a distribution of colors and shapes instantly produces.
Olivier Payeur works from nature and draws from live models for nudes and portraits. These studies then serve as the basis for his paintings, for which he invents the colors himself for the most part. He paints still lifes in order to test compositions and experiment.
"I paint to produce an emotion."
His paintings and drawings have been used for studio scenes in the series "Imperfect Women" broadcast on Apple TV starting March 2026.
