Grisaille Tulips

Inspired by Graham Rust and his book The Painted House. It is a book on Murals and Trompe L'Oeill Decor. He now has The Painted House Revisited and I am very excited to read and see what new projects he has accomplished.

The Painted House is one of my all time favorite books. I spent quite a few years painting murals for my clients and painting tromp l'oiell scenes. Thanks for visiting my blog. Happy Holidays

Can you give us an idea how we can get subjects or an inspiration to make an artwork like these? I am looking forward for one.
