Founded in 2013 with roots dating back to 1996, LIL ART BODEGA is led by artist and owner Tanya "M!SCRE8" Watler, a visual urban artist from the vibrant streets of Harlem, New York, now based in the captivating desert landscape of Las Vegas, Nevada.
With over 25 years of experience in the creative industry and a BFA in Fine Arts and Graphic Design, MISCRE8 is renowned for her clever positive phrasing, versatile color palettes, and distinctive fusion of abstract and graffiti urban styles. Her deep connection to letters, cartoons, and hip-hop culture has shaped her artistic journey, which spans across various mediums, including acrylics, paper, spray paint, inks, and digital drawing. Some of her works even come to life with augmented reality and immersive art installations.
Our mission is to provide customers, art enthusiasts, and followers with products and services that radiate joy, positivity, and creative energy. While 90's street culture inspired the creation of LIL ART BODEGA, offering a variety of services and merchandise, the brand has since evolved to include high-end products.
Though the brick-and-mortar art studio, supplies shop, and gallery thrived from 2010 to 2024, LIL ART BODEGA has transitioned into a streaming online business with a private studio, embracing a fresh quality of life and mindset. Join us as we embark on this exciting new chapter with LIL ART BODEGA!

Leaving my art on society is not about criticism or stirring controversy. Instead, it's about bringing smiles, laughter, and a sense of well-being to people of all ages. As a society, we seem to have overlooked the ART of feeling good & prioritizing self-love. The motivation behind my art is to uplift a feel-good vibe.
