Man Overboard
1981

A stylized print depicting a person in a green suit with a red tie falling headfirst against a backdrop of a large ship and a night sky with stars and a full moon. The ship is tilted, suggesting a sinking scenario, and the person's arms are flailing above their head. Waves are illustrated at the bottom, indicating the person is falling into the sea. The artwork has a signature at the bottom right corner.
