About the Item

Tom Pfannerstill recreates trash he finds - he then hand paints on wood - painted on carved basswood. These are carved wood sculptures and hand painted. There is no collage - it is all Trompe l'œil (French for "deceive the eye") is a classic painting technique that creates a highly realistic optical illusion, on carved wood. Tom is a master not only in sculpting the wood but also in painting so real it fools the eye.

Spilling Pepsi Cup with Coffee Lid and Five of Spades

By Richard Shaw

Located in Burlingame, CA

In the world of ceramics, Richard Shaw is a professor and the master of trompe l’oeil (French for “fool the eye”) sculpture, a style often associated with paintings intended to give a convincing illusion of reality. Shaw's work replicates everyday objects (such as tin cans, playing cards, and cutlery) in porcelain. He then glazes these components and groups them in unexpected and even jarring combinations. While interested in how objects can reflect a person’s identity, Shaw also poses questions regarding the relationship between appearance and authenticity. Spilling Pepsi Cup with Coffee Lid...
