Description
I own and run a small hotel situated in Mirissa and I am interested in any artist, muralist who can do projects within the hotel in exchange for free accommodation and breakfast. My place is in a central, safe and situated in a good location approx 20m away from the beach. We have a swimming pool as well as roof top garden and a main kitchen. We have currently 3 full time members of staff and another 3 part time staff members. I would like to enhance my hotel with beautiful works of art and give the place a soul and nice ambiance. I am happy to look at the artist's portfolio to decide if it's the right fit for my project before agreement can be made. Happy to offer three meals a day or can offer access to the kitchen to prepare own meals if required.
