Original Prompt

A magical, dreamlike illustration in the style of Van Gogh's 'Starry Night,' with swirling celestial patterns and vibrant, textured brushstrokes. A young boy stands near a serene, reflective lake under a swirling, star-filled night sky. The sky features deep shades of cobalt blue and teal with golden, glowing stars and a crescent moon radiating soft, warm light. Surrounding the lake are quaint, rustic wooden cottages illuminated by the warm glow of their windows, nestled among lush, shadowy trees. The boy, depicted from behind, wears a dark shirt patterned with glowing stars that blend seamlessly into the cosmic environment, creating a sense of unity between him and the universe. The art style features impressionistic brushwork with a touch of ethereal glow, emphasizing whimsy, tranquility, and wonder. The scene evokes a sense of awe and connection between nature and the cosmos.
