Stonemason's workplace - take two
This is a view I painted and posted quite some time ago. Last time I painted from a photo - today I went on site with some painting friends to sit a few hours by the sea with a wonderful view. I chose about the same viewpoint as last time and tried a looser approach. The previous version is an overcast day in February, so the contrast with this version's mid summer greens is obvious. Paper is 190gsm Saunders Waterford CP in a 19x19cm homebound sketchbook. I use a limited palett, mainly burnt and raw sienna, cobalt, french ultramarine and light red. All comments welcome!

Yes, I definitely like your interpretation!
I feel sorry for those people, not because of their work, but because their illness, the silicosis.
