I was invited to paint/decorate the Marine Center at the Barefoot Manta Resort in Fiji in a really short time. I only had white and black painting and only two kind of brushes. I also tried to use the resources that I had on the island.

The first wall I just painted a background-coral-flow for the photos of the marine biologists in the center as the main focus. 

The second wall, is divided by 6, so I tried to give a different focus in each of them. At the first is their conservation motto quote, what they defend and fight for. At the second is a challenge to the guests, to try to find these unique fishes at the reef when they snorkel (I painted first the fish, watercolour on paper, to give them more details, and then I glued them to the wall). At the third, just hanged the biggest shells found on that reef. At the fourth I tried to recreate the ropes with corals (*) (all the process is explained on their daily talks to the guests). The fifth and bottom one I did a DYI manta (because mantas are the main attraction there) with shells from the beach. And at the last one, because is more hidden, I painted a nautilus.

(*) This resort is focused on the conservation of the reef and they plant corals in their own nursery. They collect brunches of corals from the reef and let them grow in ropes for around on year, to then, when they're big enough, plant them back. so my idea was to replicate the ropes to show people how is the process.
