John Pugh has carved out a niche for himself in the art world, a niche that's a natural for him, in a media that combines architecture, craftsmanship and wit riding in tandem with fine art. He's a trompe l'oeil muralist, and has been refining the craftiness and craft in his art for the past 23 years. Trompe l'oeil (pronounced "trump loy") is a French phrase meaning "fool the eye," and Pugh's work certainly does that. People have been known to strike up conversations with the human figures in Pugh's work or to try to set a glass down on a table in one of his compositions.
