I once won a prize for a short story I wrote. The subject had to be about Hopper's painting; 'NightHawks'.

..I think in general he's an artist that there is much to write about with his paintings..but wow, maybe I could read it sometime..?..'where two streets meet' is also seen a lot in the painting...with the jarring/awkward lights of the diner and the darkness outside...
