In our transition from being a "Victorian" to "historic" bed & breakfast, we plan to re-theme the guest room at the front of the house to Route 66. It's particularly appropriate since the view from the sitting room is Central Avenue, which Route 66 followed through Albuquerque. To accomplish this, we are now looking for a mural artist. Anyone interested in submitting ideas and a bid can contact us at info@bottger.com. If you know of a mural artist who may be interested, please forward the link to this post on to them.
This is a photo of the room as it is now. The room is currently a very light caramel color with sage green trim and linens. Our plan is to re-paint the walls a light robin's egg blue and paint the woodwork white. The area where we'd like the mural is right over the bed where the framed picture is. The drapery swag with bouquet would be gone, of course. What we envision is a "map" of Route 66 through Albuquerque stretching about the width of that swag, with renditions of famous Route 66 landmarks in Albuquerque.
We plan to have this work done in August. All bids and inquiries by artists are welcome!
I’m having fun--come on along!
