Water and People
Completed: 2021In this mural, Haenahhh revisited her experiences and memories of Riverside and the Don River: walking and bicycling along the water and taking a quick break admiring the nature around the neighbourhood, it makes you forget that you’re in the city.
About the Artist:
Haenahhh (she/her) is a freelance illustrator, animator and mural artist living in Toronto. Not having an art background, she has found a lot of freedom exploring different mediums and ways of showing her artwork. Painting murals has been one of her biggest passions lately, while Haenahhh’s interests lie in drawing people, spaces and plants.
