Trompe l'oeil murals, faux finishes and hand painted furniture,
are painted using techniques in trompe l'oeil and
the art of faux finishing by Art Effects
to create illusions and decorative finishes.
Murals
Murals, with or without a trompe l'oeil effect,
can be big or small, inside or outside, encompass a whole room or only part.
A mural is a painting applied directly to a wall,
ceiling or other permanent surface.
Painted murals dating back to prehistoric times are proof that
people have an inherited instinct to decorate. Give us a surface and
man will paint a mural on it to express his ideas, thoughts, imagination and emotions.

Trompe L'Oeil Murals
Trompe L'Oeil Murals can be unique additions to the interior design
of any room. It is not necessary for one of these murals to take
up a whole wall. By using creative techniques with trompe l'oeil
and faux finishes simple smaller
accent murals can have a
larger effect then if a whole room mural had been painted.
Murals with Architectural Trompe l'oeil Elements
Trompe l'oeil architectural elements, like columns, pillars and
arches
can also be
painted within the murals adding richness and sophistication to the design
of your home or office. By using the techniques of
trompe l'oeil and
faux finishing
and working closely with the architectural and interior design
of a room, trompe l'oeil murals can enhance the decorative scheme of the area
giving it new dimensions with their illusions.
Hopefully we will be able to pass on new ideas, products and inovative techniques you might be able to use.
