What is Trompe L'Oeil and in what ways can learning about Trompe L'Oeil and its techniques be beneficial to a student who wants a career in the art world?


Research/Curating:  If students Google search, they can get the definition of Trompe L'Oeil, as well as information on how to create a Trompe L'Oeil artwork, artists who have used the technique, and Trompe L'Oeil job opportunities.  Once students find this information, they can blog about the information that was found.
