![[John Pugh; Master of Trompe L'oiel Murals]](1trompebanner.gif){kind=small}
 rtist John Pugh has been fooling the eye of the beholder for more than 20 years.
Trompe L'oeil, from French, meaning to deceive the eye, is an artistic tradition that dates back to ancient Greece. It is a style of painting in which objects are rendered with extreme realism but
are also given the illusion of depth that no photo can quite replicate. Below are just a few murals and paintings that have utilized this style so eloquently. Feel free to browse these, explore main catagories or search for specific projects in the site navigation panel further below.
