Chamarel is a village high in hills in the S.W. of Mauritius. From there, in places, you can look down onto The Indian Ocean. It’s a village up in the clouds. Here’s a portrait of Christian, the town’s artist. He created the look as you drive into the village – his distinctive style of sign writing is on all the restaurants and shops along the main road. My friend, Martin Ursell made lots of beautiful drawings of them while we were there, in particular, several of the pineapple & sugar cane juice stand just down from the Village Hall.
