Alexandra Nechita was born on August 27, 1985. Her star sign is Virgo.
Alexandra Nechita was ten when her paintings became famous all over the world. She visited Britain, France, Italy, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and her family’s native place (祖籍) Romania where 5,000 fans came to see her at the airport.
Alexandra is practical and organized. She is a good student. Her studies always come first. She only starts painting after she’s done her homework. She works on two or three paintings at a time. The paintings sell for thousands and Alexandra’s parents have given up their jobs to work for their daughter. Life for the Nechita family is very different from what it was like a few years ago.
Alexandra’s father Nike left Romania for political (政治的) reasons in 1985. At first he tried his best to learn English and had different kinds of low-paid jobs. In 1987, he brought his wife and Alexandra, who was then 18 months old, to America. The family was very poor. Alexandra began to draw at the age of three.
She was drawing for four or five hours a day. Soon people liked to buy her paintings and she had her first art show at the age of eight. Stories about this child appeared in the newspapers and on television. The family now live in a large house with a swimming pool. And she spends lots of time on her hobbies — travelling and painting. Her mother said, “We started without anything, but thanks to Alexandra, we have everything we ever dreamed of.”
