Tonton Art

Tonton Art is a Toronto-based creative venture by artist Tanya Mu, specializing in vibrant watercolor art that celebrates the city’s diverse food culture. What began during the pandemic as a way to reminisce about dining out has grown into a full-time business dedicated to capturing Toronto’s iconic dishes and hidden culinary gems.

Through custom painting commissions for local restaurants and corporations, a curated online print shop offering art prints and stationery, and presence at local markets, Tonton Art connects people to the stories and flavors that define Toronto. Recent collaborations, like a featured collection with Uniqlo highlighting Kinton Ramen and Neo Coffee Bar, demonstrate a growing resonance within the community.

More than just a business, Tonton Art is a passion project aimed at promoting Toronto’s unique culinary identity. By turning meals into lasting artistic tributes, Tanya not only supports local eateries but also builds a shared sense of place and belonging through her work.
