Organised by Australian artist Christopher Hogan, the mural will consist of 350 tiles painted by anyone who cares to pay the B1,000 to be part of the project. So far 209 tiles have been bought and painted.

The mural, inspired by the gardens around the resort and Thailand’s rain forest, was designed by Mr Hogan and is in purple hues, purple being the Angsana's brand colour.

Tiles will remain on sale until January 25. Those wanting to join in should go to the Angsana any day between 5.30 and 6.30pm every day. For more information call 076-324101.
