Category: Mural Wall Art    Title:  Wine Cellar Mural    By:  Paul & Susie
Painted by hand directly on this large dome foyer ceiling, this trompe l'oeil artwork has an old world look to match the style of this Santa Barbara Estate. On a flat tray ceiling, these statues were painted as if high above the actual surface, hoisting the chandelier up. The trompe l'oeil or 'fool the eye' technique gives the illusion of an actual sky and architecture. The artwork was aged to have the effect of crumbling plaster and cracks. The style and colors were then also carried onto the wall in a trompe l'oeil arched window with a mountain landscape vista. Scrolled designs accentuate the unique architecture of this outdoor loggia leading to the pool of this Montecito, California estate.
