Paris Café

This recent work of trompe l'oeil was completed on the flat wall of a residential kitchen area. Notice three instances of the existing kitchen features incorporated into the artwork: a bird appearing to light atop the upper cupboards, the actual tile back splash seemingly extended above, below, and down the alley, and the electrical outlet that is almost completely hidden.

Kansas City resident boasts multiple murals

This eye catching mural at the top of a staircase provides a

lovely finishing touch, drawing the eye upwards and into the next space.

This ivy latticed archway also provides a charming link between

the living room and kitchen in this Kansas City home.

Trompe l'oeil glass cupboards: an affordable alternative to the real thing,

do not need a beautiful set of matching dishes behind them, and require no dusting!

An original morning glory border transforms this bathroom from

basic and plain to interesting and distinctive.

Decorative floral butterfly arch around coat hook nook:

a touch of whimsy and beauty in an otherwise dull and unnoticed location.

This series of photographs capture recent paintings which adorn the walls of a private residence.

In the room above I painted the decoration above the window. Below is a close-up of the painting.

The grouping of paintings displayed here is actually painted on the wall. The surface is curved and would not allow the hanging of paintings. A trompe l'oeil painting solves the decorating dilemma with ease.



The stone tile over the luxurious bathtub fireplace is extended to the ceiling with trompe l'oeil pillars and arch. The "view" through the arch carries out the client’s decorative theme.

mural in a large public hallway

 This is part of a very large mural that runs through the hallways of a church. The mural depicts multiple scenes representing a "town square" theme. The mural is over 295 feet in length, ceiling to floor.

Here I am painting a Paris scene on the wall of a travel agency.




This trompe l'oeil niche adds interest in an otherwise plain hallway.

This is a painting of the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City.








In an apartment that allowed nothing to be hung on the walls, I painted a number of pieces, including this trompe l'oeil version of Waterlilies. The frame is also painted onto the flat wall.

A faux niche with border painted in a tiny apartment kitchen adds interest and a sense of space.

These doors are painted to look as if they are open.

Everything is this photo is painted: the window, towels, baskets, chalkboard, everything.

This trompe l'oeil window depicts a family memory.
