An amazing opportunity to paint the entire exterior of the derelict John O'Groats hotel. Our concept was to bring some childlike excitement and wonder back to John O’ Groats. The excitement of holidays, destinations, journeys and travel. The hotel presented itself as a great canvas to work on, with a massive expanse of sea and sky in the background. From a distance the hotel now looks like some offbeat fun fair has come to towm - with closer inspection individual works by each of the artist can be discovered.
The artist who worked with DUFI (us!) were: Richie Comming, Mike Inglis, Fraser Gray and Martin McGuinness. Thanks to everyone involved. - AL
