Leisa whose real name is Li Xia was born in Liuzhou, Guangxi, China. In July 1991 she has successfully completed her studies in the art of painting at the Pedagogical University, Guangxi, Guilin.

At first she worked as a decoration designer! For many years she has worked for a local 4 star hotel. Later she married and has raised a son.

She was Vice-President of the Association of Women Painters in Guilin. She had several opportunities to participate in various exhibitions in Guilin. Her art work has won several awards and has been honored in various journals and newspapers.

Soon she developed her unique style of painting. It combines the bright colors with soft natural tones. The result is colorful Paintings which cheer up the mind. The lively vivid images are appreciated by both Europeans and Asians equally.

Since 2009 she lives with her family in Switzerland. She combines in her works modern Asian art with European impressions. Leisa’s Paintings now have two features:  The art is coming from her heart, along with new influences of home, customs and nature.

Since 2010 she is a Member at the SGBK Swiss Society of Women Artists.
