Souillac (name of a countryside in the south of Mauritius) by Riaz Auladin

Comments

Do like your work and your style Riaz The composition is great and especially the inclusion of the street signs. You have asked for criticisms and the only point I would make (and it's only a minor one) is the expanse of road in the right foreground which is a little lacking in interest. Perhaps a shadow across it from a tree out of the picture might help - an old trick but it usually works.

I agree with Michael. A shadow in the foreground would just break up the road but other than that I think it's great.

Lovely painting of what many would agree to be one of the idyllic places in the world Riaz

One of the kind of paintings that I have always wanted to do. To paint a countryside view with the sea far away in the distance. I tried to keep the colours as nearest to the original picture I had taken. It was a bright day with a great shadow effect. One of my favorites. Hope you will like it. Water colour on paper. Comments and critics are both welcome.
