Owen Dippie specializes in recreating Renaissance art on a grand scale. He was born nearby in Kawerau in 1984. His incredible talent with spray cans has earned him international commissions, recognition and awards. Fortunately, several of his murals grace the walls around Tauranga. This is OD’s 88.5 foot rendition of The Birth of Venus. The original by Italian master Sandro Botticelli was painted in the late 1480s and now hangs in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy.
