John Pugh’s amazing 3D Murals

A mural is usually known as a large picture painted or affixed directly on a wall or ceiling.  John Pugh is a specialist in 3D Murals.  His breathtaking 3d murals are now on show at various places around the world.    By fully integrating his art into the architecture, the viewer is perplexed as to where reality begins. Once captivated, the viewer enters into another dimension of time and place.

Pugh is a master of architectural trompe l’oeil.   It’s an art technique involving extremely realistic imagery in order to create the optical illusion that the depicted objects appear in three dimensions, instead of actually being a two-dimensional painting.

John Pugh’s creative energy, easy manner, and ability to articulate the client’s concepts into a singular solution for each site, make him a favorite choice among private collectors as well as architects and designers.
