Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

This title is the paperback edition of The Art of Illusion. Decorative paint finishes are very much in vogue and the art of trompe l'oeil (literally designed to "deceive the eye") is increasing in popularity worldwide. This book is the only practical, project-based book to tackle all aspects of the subject of trompe l'oeil, step-by-step - from understanding how colour works and the rudiments of perspective, through scaling up and tracing the design onto a wall to painting. Visually stunning examples of the author's work and a range of projects of varying sizes provide a wide variety of inspirational ideas for this intriguing and entertaining art form.
