Litteral's artistic journey has been deeply influenced by her focus on using art to explore and address sensitive issues, particularly in exposing and healing the wounds of childhood abuse.[2]
Litteral was born and raised in Jackson, Michigan. In 1985, she earned an Associate Degree in Specialized Technology (ITS) focusing on Drafting and Design. Litteral earned a Ceramic Teaching Degree from Duke's School of Clay and Fine Arts in Charleston, South Carolina in 1988. She also studied at the University of New Hampshire and Grossmont College in El Cajon, California. Litteral pursued her Master of Fine Arts (MFA) degree at San Diego State University (SDSU), where her master's thesis explored the intersection of art and the healing process.[3]
In the late 1970s, Litteral worked as a gymnastics coach at East Jackson High School. Litteral is the director of the Feminist Image Group (FIG) and a member of Allied Craftsmen of San Diego.[4][5] Litteral promotes women's voices in the art world and curated the FIG show titled "Don’t Shut Up!" at San Diego City College.[6]
In the beginning of 2015, Litteral has been a Visiting Artist at Las Colinas Women's Detention Center and RJ Donovan Correctional Facility, contributing to the rehabilitation of incarcerated individuals.[7][8] In 2023, Linda Litteral collaborated with students at Monarch School, using the Healing Art Process to create paintings for the Metamorphosis fundraising campaign.[9]
Litteral's work is included in collections at the Museu Brasileira De Escultura in São Paulo, Brazil, and the Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute in Jingdezhen, China. She has exhibited at Grafiska Sallskapet and Krogen Amerika in Sweden.[10][11]
In partnership with Project PAINT, Linda Litteral created Beyond Blues: Echoes of Color, published in 2019. This publication features artwork submitted by incarcerated artists participating in the Arts in Corrections program.
Litteral published Show and Tell: Healing Trauma Through Art with Empress Publications in 2023. Jennifer Leigh-Selig, an author and publisher of Empress Publications, describes Show and Tell as "a courageous memoir."[12]
