Since 3 people in the first day commented that they didn't know this wall was "actually" brick, I can claim that "trompe l'oeil painting" definitely wins as the right description for this project (since it means "to fool the eye").
Look again, the brick wall to the right of the seam in the picture is actual brick. (The seam is the corner where the actual brick wall meets the new sheetrock wall.) The brick between the seam on the right and the green "wallpaper" on the left is painted on flat sheetrock.
The "wallpaper" is painted on the same surface. It is the same finish we utilized in the office, with a larger repeat of the pattern adjusted for larger wall. More on wallpaper and more pics in next few posts.

Very Cool! I am a muralist and faux finisher out of New York. I enjoy looking at other people's work. The faux brick looks awesome! Great Job!
