trompe l'oeil
Even though it's pronounced tromploy, the phrase is actually spelled trompe-l'œil, or trompe l'oeil. It is a French phrase meaning 'deceive the eye'. It is an art technique that employs perspective, shadow, and extremely realistic imagery in order to create an optical illusion. It can be used to make a room appear larger than it is, or create the illusion that there is an object lying on a table when in fact the object is merely painted, or that something is a three-dimensional sculpture when it's really just a two-dimensional painting. There are some great trompe-l'oeil murals painted on the plain flat sides of building that make you think you are looking at an arched wall with gardens beyond, for example. There is an artist active now who creates trompe-l'oeil paintings of canyons on sidewalks that are so realistic people are afraid of falling in. This is a great topic to search on google images - you'll have fun.
One technique is painting an extending road on a flat plane that makes it look like it is actually going further into space. An example of this is at Disneyland's California Adventure. I believe it is supposed to look like Rodeo Dr. with the Hollywood sign in the back but it is all painted on a flat surface. Also any type of optical illusion can be an example of trompe l'oiel.
