krita has never supported Wayland so far. It uses various X technologies
(e.g. tablet support, color management) that are not available under
Wayland, or nobody worked on them in krita.

There is an upstream bug mentioning this:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=429079
starting from the upcoming version 4.4.2, you will even get an error
message with krita closing itself afterwards in case you are running
under Wayland. Please run krita within XWayland until proper Wayland
support is implemented in krita.

Thanks,
