Venice Place

Acrylic on Canvas, 2001

 

Venice Place is a wonderful old 1900 era building in Venice, California. It was built back when Venice actually had lots of canals and gondola boats navigating them. The building was also used as the apartment of Detective Ken Hutchinson in the popular 1970’s series, Starsky & Hutch. Almost an oddity today, the building gives some idea of what the rest of the town must have looked like a hundred years ago.
