When my mom and sister were here last week, we spent the weekend in Venice Beach. We spent hours on the beach, walked the narrow streets, and marveled at the endless street art covering the buildings.

I was so excited to stumble upon this mural, “Homage To A Starry Night,” since it’s one of my favorite paintings and my Instagram handle, @starrynight64! My elementary school art class actually did a project in which we took turns dressing up as Vincent Van Gogh and working on a replica of “Starry Night.” When I visited my school last year, I was so excited to see that they still do that project!

This homage made me incredibly happy, and I’ll definitely be going back to gaze at it again. I guess you could say I found myself in Venice Beach!
