Trompe L'oeil Window - Mountain Village on a Lake
This is a large, arched trompe l'oeil window displaying a panoramic view of a scenic mountain village surrounding a pacid lake. I created this custom window look using a scene from a personal photograph supplied by my cients.
Trompe L'oeil Window - Detail
This is a closer view of some of the detail from the landscape scene from inside the trompe l'oeil window. I used a dry brush technique to create the appearance of mists on the distant mountain.
Two Princesses and a Castle - Child's Room
This mural of two princesses in front of a castle is for a child's room. The child enjoyed chosing the two models, who were the inspirations for this scene, from amongst her favorite animated characters.
Trompe L'oeil Mural - Stone Wall surrounding a Garden
This is a mural of a garden in front of a stone wall. Note how the existing wall sconce was incorporated into the mural as a lamp post. A trompe l'oeil style of mural with landscape scenery, such as this one, can visually add space to any room. It features clematis and red roses.
Mural - Desert View
This mural of a desert scene is located on the curved wall of a powder room (note the tissue holder on the right hand side). It is set against the original color of the walls.
Mural - Dragons
This is the largest of three dragons painted around two large closets. Note that this dragon is perched atop a large stone pilar and that the switchplate for the light switch was incorporated into the mural.
Mural - Dragons - Detail
Another one of the three dragons can be seen in this picture letting out what could be imagined to be a mighty roar.
Mural - Space Camp
This is a full wall mural of a military-style camp complete with a wooden deck and somewhat war torn canvas covering its framework. It overlooks the beach of a far away planet with some sci-fi characters and spaceships engaged in an ongoing drama. It was designed for a child's room but could easily be modified (minus the sci-fi characters and perhaps with different draperies) to appeal to the whole family.
Mural - Space Camp - Detail
Here is a close up look at two of the spaceships from the sci-fi mural.
Mural - Aquarium
This is a large mural (although not a full wall) of an aquarium. Lots of tropical fish can be seen along with the colorful coral reef at the bottom.
Mural - Charleston Plantation
This mural was commissioned by the The Olde Square Inn Bed and Breakfast in Mount Joy, PA. It is located in the Charleston Room and it depicts a Southern plantation house as viewed from a long lane lined with live oaks draped in spanish moss. There is a lovely picnic lunch waiting for the owner of the comfy pillows and blanket. The blue scrollwork was done freehand and the design was inspired by scrollwork on the wallpaper of the adjoining room.
