• 3D Architectural Illusions: Amazing Paintings, Murals and Mosaics

    3D Mural Art

    (Check out our complete collection of 100+ Works of Creative and Geeky Art and Graffiti.)

    3D street artists are great, but their ever-popular sidewalk chalk art isn’t the only 3D art of its kind. Inside a home, on the outside of a building or even in a swimming pool, the illusion of three-dimensionality can transform a space, giving the appearance of depth, texture and place in a mythical or fantastical fashion.

    Eric Grohe creates surprising illusions of far-reaching spaces out of otherwise flat surfaces. In some of these images of his works, it is difficult to see what is within the picture he created and what is in the real foreground. Though not strictly photorealistic, his plays on perspective feel compellingly real from a distance.

    This mystery artist clearly has an eye for classical and medieval scenes. His paintings both enliven these otherwise conventional interior spaces, creating amazing conversation pieces and great play spaces for children. If anyone knows who this is, please add information and links in the comments!

    3D pool art is a bit more on the playful side of 3D residential art. Composed of custom tiles, these creations can be purchased in standard patterns or made to order for specific pools. Do you know of other amazing 3D illusion art or know who the mystery artist is? Feel free to add relevant links in the comments below!

      The first piece is in downtown Columbia, South Carolina, on Taylor Street. It’s called Tunnelvision and it is by Blue Sky. (http://www.blueskyart.com/)

      is it just me, or does that first one seem dangerous? how long until there are a pile of call smashed up into that “whole”. amazing art though, especially the first one. you also gotta give it up for the photographers (sometimes)

      You are an amazing artist. I am an artist, but could not possibly do anything like you do. Thank you for letting us see it. It is a site that I will put in a folder, so that I can see it again at will. Congratulations on your amazing and wonderful work.

      The first mural is a classic. In Chicago beautiful trompe l’oeil murals have been slowly disappearing. I am glad to see murals on a large scale are still surviving.
      Really Inspiring.
