About the Artist
Alejandra Rassvetaieff was born in Mexico City, in 1971 and studied painting in private studios in Mexico City, mainly with teacher Martha Alvarado since 1998. She now lives in San Francisco and is actively involved in art projects and shows in the city.
Brightness in color, imagination, places, people and animals are what the artist’s naif world is made up of and her paintings take the spectator to the abstractions of her life experience, a kind journey to the soul.
