Lita Cabellut (born 1961 in Barcelona) is a Spanish painter who lives and works in The Hague, The Netherlands. Cabellut works on large scale canvases using a contemporary variation of the fresco technique.
Born a gipsy girl in the streets of El Raval in Barcelona, Cabellut was adopted at the age of thirteen. During this new period she discovered the Prado Museum and became inspired by the paintings of Goya, Velázquez, Ribera and Rembrandt.
Lita Cabellut moved to The Netherlands at the age of 19 to pursue her studies at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam, where she studied between 1982 and 1984. During these years her work would be influenced by the Dutch Masters and she developed some of the artist techniques that have become her distinguishing mark.
Working on large-scale canvases, Spanish artist Lita Cabellut has developed a contemporary variation of the classic fresco technique and a recognizable personal palette style that comes from her obsession to provide her characters with a skin. However, beyond her most recognized works and techniques Cabellut is a multi-disciplinary artist whose works also include pieces such as: oil on canvas, drawings on paper sculptures, photography, poetry, visual poems and videos.
