Here is the page that shows one of the escaped prisoners washed up at Fort Point in San Francisco. He did survive (for details you'll have to buy the book :). The main challenge here is that this is a true nocturne. He probably arrived here after 9 PM in December. Quite dark. So I used a bit of license with the phosphorescence of the waves.
I also must confess that I used Photoshop for the figure. I painted him separately, scanned him and dropped him in. It's a pretty nice painting with him or without him.
