Although her work might remind you of some recent AI creations, we can assure you that it is not. Alexa uses raw talent and imagination to make her living paintings. Combining movement specialists with paint, Alexa perfectly blends colors on skin, clothing, and backgrounds. Her completed pieces come to life, telling an intricate story in movement. Check out this incredible mother-and-daughter portrait!

Nothing is safe from Alexa’s brushwork. She uses model Chris Stewart to bring New York City graffiti to life. Her art crosses genres, including classic, modern, and brief forays into the abstract world.

Depending on her color palettes, each living painting looks similar but vastly different from standard paintings. When she uses muted pastels, her work has a watercolor appearance. Bolder colors have an acrylic or oil painting feel. The depth of each painting is beyond anything in a museum.
