Her art has been featured in the Los Angeles Times, NPR, and Juxtapoz Magazine. Alexandra Manukyan studied art and art education in Armenia and has a BFA in graphic design from UCLA. Her extensive career in fashion and entertain laid further ground work for her fine art career creating traditionally rich, yet surreal figurative paintings suggestive of the perilous consequence of environmental destruction. Her works are widely exhibited and collected.
