At the end of graveyard shift


This is painted on a 1/4 sheet of a sheet of yellow colored handmade watercolor paper. Taken from an old family photograph, this image evokes the life of a police officer stationed on graveyard duty. He comes home and tries to relax with the Sunday comics, before the day has dawned.
