Trompe l'oeil wall murals:

 

    Trompe l'oeil is a French phrase that means ( fool the eyes) and it is a fun and very nice art. using this technique on your walls gives you a real life looking pictures and it's all achieved using highlights and shadows to make the picture painted looking real .It could be as simple as sponging clouds on a blue sky -like background, or as complicated as painting whole pictures that looks so real.

 

 

in the right picture using grey shadows between the ceiling color and a band of the wall color added some interest to an otherwise plain ceiling.

 

  A mural painted on the wall in the balcony transformed it into something from a trip to Italy.. ( that is my mom's work..)
 

A window with a scene painted on an empty wall between two doors makes you remember happy days every time u pass by.
