Forum Peinture à l'huile & acrylique: critique étrangère

Bonjour,

voici la critique sur un autre forum, americain je pense...
comme quoi mes toiles on aussi du succès outre antlantique... d'ici que j'aille faire un séjour par là... ;)

"This is a very nice painting...and I am sure that I am not alone in thinking " I wish I was there!! "

There is a nice sense of perspective and you have handled the figures in the water and their reflections extremely well.

Palm trees are deceptively difficult to paint too, so well done for a realistic rendering.

There are one or two things that I think I should mention ( This is not meant as a criticism but just an observation...),and the first is that I feel that there should be some shadows under the trees, particularly at the base. The colour of the sand is pretty much the same value from the foreground to the distant shore,and it would probably help if you tried to lighten it as it stretches away. Finally, I think that the sky under the clouds at the horizon could also do with a tiny bit of lightening, it is a little too dark..and has a greyer tone than the rest of the sky, which is a dazzling blue (nice!!).

I do like this picture though..... well done!!
