The communal lives of women, especially at work is another common theme in Barrington Watson's work. He is famous for producing works of art that depict women gathering at the market, or doing housework or chatting and gossiping (“kas-kas”).

The Stone Cutter depicts a woman mechanically cutting stones. This piece demonstrates Watson's accomplishment in rendering the female form while at the same time charging them with erotic overtones. In this sense, his female paintings can be likened to those of the 19th century impressionist Renoir; worldly, robust and engaging.
