About

Hi! My name is Lita (also known as The Crybaby Artist online). I’m a freelance traditional artist and expressive arts facilitator living in Ontario, Canada.

I work with water-based mediums, primarily watercolours and gouache to create colourful, haunting visuals centred around body horror, myth, and mental health.

Mental health is incredibly important to me as someone who uses art and poetry as a means of cathartic expression. This is why I started expressive art workshops. As someone who values the communal aspect of art and has worked in the gender-based violence prevention sector, I prioritize the creation of trauma-informed spaces centred around holistic care.

I enjoy sharing the solace that art can provide to community through my personal artwork and and the workshops I offer. Let’s work together!
