Renaissance-Style Birth of Venus Ceiling Mural
This Renaissance-style Venus mural (inspired by Italian artist Sandro Potticelli’s “The Birth of Venus”) was custom painted on the foyer ceiling in a private residence in San Jose, California. (Learn more about my approach to painting ceilings and other muralist musings here.)
I also painted the library ceiling with putti, inspired by the Stanza della Segnatura, the ceiling of the pope’s library in Rome (a project by fresco painter and Italian Renaissance artist Raphael). You can read more about this mural project in this blog post.
