Faux Finishes |

Faux Finishing is the art of creating painted
illusions on wall and furniture surfaces. By layering the paint,
glaze and texture applications and using various tools, a wide variety of
special effects can be achieved by an experienced artist. Visit our
faux finishes section to learn more. |

Trompe L'oeil |
|
Trompe L'oeil is the style of painting which creates the illusion of
being three dimensional. Murals & artwork containing Trompe
L'oeil are very realistic, although realism is not always necessary
to achieve the effect.
