The Rebirth of Venus

"Of august gold-wreathed and beautiful
Aphrodite I shall sing to whose domain
belong the battlements of all sea-loved
Cyprus where, blown by the moist breath
of Zephyros, she was carried over the
waves of the resounding sea on soft foam.
The gold-filleted Horae happily welcomed
her and clothed her with heavenly raiment"
- Demetrios Chalkokon

For my Western Civilizations Final I was inspired to recreate a piece done by Botticelli called the Birth of Venus from the Renaissance Era - of course with my own modernesque twist to it! I also was trying to mimic the style of the original slightly so the proportions of foreground vs. background are a bit exaggerated purposely.
