Random Fun Paintings

I've always had a love for great trompe l'oeil
paintings.
Whenever I come across any spectacular or funny ones- I always snap a shot. Here are some very life like chickens that were in a hotel sitting area in Napa Valley. Click on any of the picts for a close-up view.

This was an umbrella painted on a back door of a parade of homes tour in Madison, WI.  Very realistic. Bet they never forget to bring one!








And this last one.... okay so it's not a painting. But sure was a take-a-second-look, life-like dog. It had a real leash and all.
