Incredible image you've created here! I love the atmosphere and the realism! How did you get the stone placement so accurately placed along the floor?

Excellent work, I especially like the lighting and the shadows cast by the trees on the ground. Very well done !

Really nice work!

Like the contrast and the color pallette too... You also did great for the character...

The only thing I would suggest you to improve if you are really picky is the ornament base of the column that we see in the foreground to the left. Maybe the shape and the texture is a bit difficult to read...

Nice painting overall ! I like the atmosphere and choice of colors as well as the minute patchwork with the stones-texture on the ground. I would suggest the closer observation of cast-shadows, as your left cross-hatch column part is 1/2 in light (a whole square + half a square), whereas your shadow just depicts 1/4 (it only shows I whole square). The angles also seem to me to be a bit off on the shadows, but besides that, great composition and overall result.
Good job.
Later edit: after looking closer, the thing about the shadow on the ground is that it doesn't represent the cross-hatch motive anymore... it's plain square. You could solve that by adding another set of diagonal planks, hence the shadow would result in a triangle at the side of your pillar followed by a rhombus, as the object actually is. (Pardon me for writing so much for just a small thing I've noticed but it is a tad difficult to describe instead of showing.)
Best regards,
Contrastblack.
