Aixa Salazar

Aixa Salazar was born and raised in the colonial city of Puebla, Mexico. Coming from a family with generations of successful artists, she was exposed to different medians and styles of art throughout her childhood.
She continued on her creative path by earning a Degree in Art at the Instituto de Artes Visuales in Puebla. During her college studies and a short time after, she was awarded a position to teach art appreciation and oil painting courses to adults who also possess a raw talent in art.
Setting her sights on California she embarked on a quest that took her from Puebla, Mexico to San Diego to Los Angeles. While in San Diego she partnered with a local sculptor and found success in designing prototypes for the decorative home accessories industry.
Since being here in LA, she has kept a low profile in the local art community working on several paintings commissioned for Private Collectors and her own collection. She has graciously declined invitations to take part in group shows at galleries around LA but did accept two invites when she was chosen for an exhibition at the Mexican Consulate Los Angeles and at the Asto Museum of Art. Still, during this period she accepted a contract with a busy art publishing firm to paint mostly botanical art for the home furnishings industry. While in constant demand during her term there, she created more than 150 paintings which were mass produced and framed-to-sell in major retail stores nationwide.
With painting and creating being her first passion, she also shares a deep passion restoring works of art created in several different types of medium. To represent that passion she went into a partnership with an art restoration business specializing in fine art restoration.

Only recently, has Aixa become more involved in local art events and is quickly gaining public exposure. Please check in periodically for updates on her upcoming appearances in local galleries and group shows soon to be scheduled over the coming months.
