Custom Poster Creation

Alecse personally takes on only one or two custom poster projects each month to ensure the highest creative quality.

Custom Poster by Alecse™ – The Perfect Personalized Art Gift

Looking for a truly unique personalized art print? Whether you want to decorate your home with something one-of-a-kind or offer a meaningful gift, Alecse™ will transform your photo or idea into a vintage-inspired poster — entirely handcrafted with his signature blend of photography, illustration, and digital painting.

This Custom Poster is one of MyRetroposter’s all-time classics — chosen by collectors and design enthusiasts who want a deeply personal, decorative piece that tells their own story. Each creation is unique, handcrafted, and designed to last a lifetime.

The Creative Experience

Every project begins with a personal phone call with Alecse to define your vision and artistic direction. This conversation is where the creative connection starts — it ensures that the final composition truly reflects your story and your style. It’s a genuine collaboration between artist and client, not an automated process.

From there, Alecse develops a tailor-made composition: combining or retouching photos, refining colors, skies or lighting, or adding new artistic details. The result? A timeless, cinematic artwork that feels both personal and iconic.

Availability

Because each project is personally created and supervised by Alecse, only 1–2 new custom posters are accepted each month. If you’d like your piece ready for a special occasion, we recommend booking your slot early — or simply placing your order today to secure your place in his creative schedule.

Alecse’s custom posters are a celebration of vintage aesthetics, meticulously crafted to blend timeless charm with modern artistry. His signature style is rooted in a passion for retro-inspired visuals, brought to life through carefully mastered techniques that make each creation unique.

A hallmark of Alecse’s work is his intentional use of soft focus effects, which evoke a nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of mid-20th-century travel posters. These subtle blurs are not imperfections but rather deliberate artistic choices, adding depth, warmth, and a dreamlike quality to his scenes. Complementing this is the half-tone effect, a classic nod to vintage printing methods that brings texture and authenticity to every piece. Together, these elements create a visual language that feels both familiar and distinctive.

Each poster is also marked by Alecse’s artist signature panel, a carefully designed “cartel” that integrates seamlessly into the artwork. Far from being just a signature, it is an integral part of the composition, underscoring the exclusivity of the piece while serving as a guarantee of authenticity.

When you commission a poster from Alecse, you’re not just acquiring a decorative piece—you’re investing in a personalized work of art that blends the past with the present in a uniquely evocative way.

Alecse’s work is gaining recognition in the world of home decor and collectible art. His posters have been featured in leading lifestyle and interior design magazines and selected for a national museum exhibition book, a testament to their cultural and artistic appeal. His talent has also caught the eye of Assouline, the renowned publisher of luxury coffee table books dedicated to art, travel, and design.

Following in the footsteps of his father, Bernard Jardel, a painter whose work was exhibited worldwide, Alecse brings his own vision to the art scene. His creations have been commissioned by hotels, restaurants, novelists, and even a vermouth brand, blending his distinctive retro aesthetic with real-world applications. With each new project, his reputation continues to grow—making his posters a unique and meaningful addition to any collection.

Each custom poster is a true work of art, carefully crafted by French artist Alecse. Far from an automated creation, this personalized service ensures that your vision is brought to life with creativity, attention to detail, and artistic expertise.

The process is collaborative and typically includes at least three rounds of proposals, allowing for refinements until the final design is perfectly aligned with your expectations.

• First Round: Delivered within 3 to 5 days, depending on the complexity of the brief.
• Additional Rounds: Each round generally requires 2-3 days, but may take longer for intricate requests. On average, most designs are approved and ready for production within 10-15 days.

However, this timeline may vary based on the complexity of your project and the responsiveness in providing feedback.

Before beginning, a discussion with Alecse will help define the timeline and ensure a clear understanding of your requirements and expectations.

Once the design is finalized:
• Printing Time: 1 to 3 days.
• Shipping: Posters are dispatched to the courier service promptly after printing.
Note: Delivery timings are estimates.

While Myretroposter takes care to ensure timely production, we cannot be held responsible for delays caused by courier services, customs, or local distribution networks.We recommend reviewing our Shop Policies before placing your order to understand all terms and conditions.
