About Michael Alford Murals

Trompe l’oeil
Michael Alford frequently incorporates trompe l’oeil features into large murals, using painted architecture and faux sky to create illusions of space on walls, ceilings, cupolas, domes and vaults. Trompe l’oeil can also be effective on a smaller scale to create playful featuers such as urns, statuary or views.

Decorative styles
Michael has a complete knowledge of both traditional and contemporary decorative styles. Past projects include classical or baroque murals, art deco murals, modern murals, landscape murals, chinoiserie murals, graphic murals, retro murals, pop art murals, fantasy murals and murals incorporating portraits of people and buildings.
