 Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in
1985. She began drawing in pen and ink at the age of two. By age
five, she had graduated to watercolors. At seven, Alexandra was
painting with oils and acrylics, and her first exhibit was a
one-woman (child) show held at a Los Angeles public library when
she was just eight years old. Alexandra’s talent was
instantly recognized as crowds came to see her amazing and often
monumental paintings. After seeing her art, the press labeled her
“The Petite Picasso.” She attracted the attention of
art critics and media who began telling the world about this rarest
of child prodigies — an artist who had mastered drawing and
color, an artist who had created a visual language of her own, in a
unique, lyrical, figurative, abstract cubist manner, an artist who
had only recently turned nine years old. By age ten, Alexandra was
producing strikingly accomplished canvases, which were easily
compared to the work of talented, fully mature artists. Her works
have a developed artistic personality, highly sophisticated and
fully alive to the nuances and possibilities of her medium. She has
become one of the most recognized artists in the world.
