Continuing with my Mural Monday<\/a> Theme, several muralists are known for their over-the-top, grand, trompe l’oeil style. I’m listing just a few here.<\/p>\n

Murals produced by Cit\u00e9Cr\u00e9ation were designed not just as decoration but to help the people of Lyon rediscover their local identity, to trace the history of a particular quartier<\/em>, or district, and to make art accessible to everyone.<\/em><\/p>\n

Finally for now, here’s a\u00a0 a link for reference on ArtInfo<\/a>, if you don’t know who Bansky is, the artist who first article mentions. He has a secret following and supposedly no one, except only an exclusive few, might know who he is. He mysteriously paints murals\u00a0 in unexpected places, while incorporating a natural element to the setting. Here’s’ one for visual reference — trompe l’oel but in a different, sparse way.<\/p>\n

More murals next Monday….<\/p>\n
