This was for an introspective piece from a book excerpt.  The character in the story is a young boy describing his grandfather who is the best cement finisher in town.  There was mention of an accident that left the grandfather with a limp.  He was inside a commercial cement mixer, cleaning the walls, when someone accidentally hit the switch.

Here is the revised color palette.  Although I felt it kind of bold to choose pink in the first version I like this one better.  I think it gives it that summer vibe which was the season the story was set in.�
