Private Residence
This is a mural created to raise the ceiling of a dining room.

Laying out the perspective is perhaps the most important step in any mural.
Without the proper perspective the mural will seem off and the illusion will
be rendered ineffective.  For this particular mural we had four different
points which are most effective when veiwed from a seated position around
the dining table.

These are the two different towers used with in the mural and as you can
see they line up nicely with the corners of the room and give the illusion of
an open ceiling.

Next we began to paint the sky in a variety of yellows, blues, and purples.

Also included were two "subliminal" angels which should become aparent to the veiwer
once they spend some time looking at the mural.
