Murals and Trompe L'oeil

Murals and Trompe L'oeil A French term which means trick the eye, trompe l'oeil is sometimes called illusionism. This unique style of painting gives the appearance of three-dimensional or photographic realism. It has flourished since The Renaissance, and can be playful or intellectually serious. Murals are large paintings, most commonly created on expansive walls in private homes, as well as on public buildings. Carla strives to create a realism that fools the spectator's eye into thinking they are looking at a genuine three-dimensional image.
