Portable Murals
Murals
Murals, with or without a trompe l'oeil effect,
can be big or small, inside or outside, encompass a whole room or only part.
A mural is a painting applied directly to a wall,
ceiling or other permanent surface.
Painted murals dating back to prehistoric times are proof that
people have an inherited instinct to decorate. Give us a surface and
man will paint a mural on it to express his ideas, thoughts, imagination and emotions.

Throughout history murals have generally been painted on a larger

found in the home or office.
"We Put The Trick, In The Trompe Of Trompe L'Oeil"
Trompe L'Oeil Murals
Trompe L'Oeil Murals can be unique additions to the interior design
of any room. It is not necessary for one of these murals to take
up a whole wall. By using creative techniques with trompe l'oeil
and faux finishes simple smaller
accent murals can have a
larger effect then if a whole room mural had been painted.
Murals with Architectural Trompe l'oeil Elements
Trompe l'oeil architectural elements, like columns, pillars and arches
can also be
painted within the murals adding richness and sophistication to the design
of your home or office. By using the techniques of trompe l'oeil and
faux finishing
and working closely with the architectural and interior design
of a room, trompe l'oeil murals can enhance the decorative scheme of the area
giving it new dimensions with their illusions.
Custom Hand Painted Wall Murals by Art Effects
With Art Effects (most of time) a customer's budget
plays a huge roll in the size and detail of one of
our hand painted murals.
A great detail of planning (see The African Mural)
goes into each of our wall murals,
our customers have input during the planning and designing
stages of their mural. This way they can relay to us what they would
like to see in their custom wall mural.
We have a huge library of references for our murals and artwork
and we use them, even when painting the simplest of things.
Custom Wall Murals
Through these references our client can visually show us what
they would like to see contained in their mural or murals.
Many artists' styles and techniques influence us in painting
one of our "Art Effects". By combining what we have learned through
experience and observations we have, through the years,
figured out many ways to use our unique
"Art Effects" to create one of our custom wall murals.
By using trompe l'oeil and faux finishes
we can achieve
the desires of the customer within their budget. We like to say we give them
a mural with more bang for their bucks.
Or at the least we can leave them with an Art Effect that will
make an impact on whoever may enter the room.
