Gallery - Trompe L'oeil
Trompe l'oeil literally means "trick the eye" in French. It has become a popular style of painting that is difficult to master. Those who prefer more realistic-looking murals, or who want to feel like they are on vacation while cooped up indoors, choose a "trompe l'oiel" mural.
