#StreetArtOnThisDate from 2015, @owendippie in #Bushwick’s #IndustrialBusinessZone aka the #IBZ! This painting mashes up my love of the #teenagemutantninjaturtles and the #renaissancepainters they correspond with! If I recall correctly this piece had a particularly short life on the streets, glad I was able to sneak this pic in. #OwenDippie #OD #bushwickstreetart #bkstreetart #muralism #muralart #leonardodavinci #raphael #michelangelo #donatello #tmnt #GoTerps #artingwithhalopigg #nycstreetart #streetartnyc (at Bushwick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCWI_kknF_a/?igshid=btdb8o7a1lzi

"DANGEROUS"

by Owen Dippie

While the new muralism movement has done wonders to bring art to new audiences there is concern that it comes at a cost to the very graffiti culture that played such an instrumental role in its rise. One facility in Los Angeles however is committed to keeping the culture alive and providing a safe space for artists of all kinds to develop their skills. Ricky Guerrero saw children of the Pico Union neighborhood getting in trouble and decided to do something about it. In 2006 he began working with talented graffiti artist Eli Flores and they opened the doors of @TheGraffLab at Venice Blvd and S Union Ave. With spaces for all kinds of temporary work, from simple tags to large productions, artists of all kinds work alongside each other within a controlled environment. This large wall overlooking the yard is reserved however for more permanent work and in 2015 New Zealand large-scale portrait artist Owen Dippie added the the watchful eyes of Michael Jackson overseeing the activities in the yard. (Read whatever you'd like into Dippie's title for the piece.)  @owendippie/

"STU: MY FRIEND, MY BROTHER"

by Owen Dippie

"Tattoo artist and teacher @Stu.McDonald is convinced taa moko (traditional Māori tattoo) can play a role in healing emotional pain," he told Radio New Zealand after he and his wife lost their teenage son to bone cancer. A little over an hour drive from McDonald's home town of Tauranga, fellow New Zealander Owen Dippie says he grew up surrounded by individuals with strong cultural identities, heavily influencing the direction his portrait work took. McDonald began the mataora (facial tattoo) work-in-progress on his face more than a decade ago, at more or less the same time Dippie began painting his highly acclaimed large-scale mural portraits on the streets of New Zealand and New York. Dippie kicked off 2019 by adding this portrait at @TheContainerYard in the Los Angeles Arts District, capturing the progress of his beloved countryman.  @owendippie/
