People working

These are paintings of people working. I tried to weed out communist propaganda, child labor, labor movement and other types of purely political works. Of course, I also weed out AI generated art when I find it.

The last photo reminds me of pouring rip-rap on the header bank of a highway overpass. Your pour from the top to the bottom, finish it as you work downhill, and pour in a checkerboard pattern. On a good day, you can remove the forms from the morning pour, place mats of steel in the areas not poured, and finish the day with header bank complete.

Jess -- thanks, I wondered what that was showing. I could tell the concrete was being poured on a slope. It made an interesting composition for a painting, it made you stop and try to process what you were seeing.

Kerrys -- if you mean the last image before the break of the lineman up on the pole, that's a Norman Rockwell painting.
