Painting for the Winter Village at Hess: A Full-Circle Moment in Hamilton

Illustration
Written By Karla-Maria Creativo

I was born and raised in #HamOnt so when @hess.village.hamilton asked me to do the artwork for their upcoming Winter Village, my answer was immediately YES.

It took me leaving the city for many years to learn how much I actually love it. The small town city feel, the green spaces, the food scene, the love for local business; Hamilton has been the place where my art business has flourished and given me the platform to grow as an entrepreneur. I really do love this city so being a part of this NEW market in one of the most memorable spots in Hamilton truly is an honour.

And we all have #HessVillage memories, right? You know, that one time…. 🫣🤫🤪

It’s time to come see Hess like you’ve never seen it before. Mark your calendars and keep your eyes on @hess.village.hamilton for all details. You don’t want to miss this one ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️
