Description
This must have been a very hard way to earn a living! Having lived in the south for most of my adult life I have heard many stories about the hardships many people had to deal with. I am sure that everyone is happy about the fact that the work nowadays is done by machinery.

Thank you very much, so many people forget about all that hard work! We all take so much for granted!

You are so right, Barbel. The cotton gin changed many lives. Wonderful subject you chose to paint. Nicely lit and blanketed. Congratulations!
