Trompe L'Oeil

I caught this view from a taxi the other day. I wonder who might have painted the little trompe l'oeil hanging light bulb and why. Isn't it great that someone took the time to notice such a mundane detail like these vents and chose to highlight them in such an unusual manner? It's too high to be noticed from the sidewalk, so I was just fortunate to notice it from the cab.

  3. Hi - the pattern arrived in Glasgow today - not bad, 5 days from US to UK. I really want to sew this RIGHT NOW, but I@m going to wait until I get some fabric that I really love.
