The White Horse Portal

Title: The White Horse Portal
Description: The White Horse Portal is a large shimmering red and green, summertime and white horse inspired landscape painting. It is a 36x36x1.5 inches oil on canvas. The style is semi-abstract and ethereal. The painting shows a white horse looking out over a hazy abstracted landscape that hints of hills, trees, sea and summer trees. In the foreground are art-nouveau style poppies contrasted against a curtain of green foliage. A portal shows the mare and the clearing she stands in. The painting was made by layering transparent paint so that the verticals of it seem to shimmer and shift around a little as you look at it. The inspiration was a recent walk along the cliffs and hills and woodland glades of Dorset which are a little fairy tale-like in places. I did not add a unicorn as that is going too far but I think the white mare was the next best thing. Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, no frame needed and ready to hang. Comes with certificate of authenticity.

Gill Bustamante

Artist Biography:

Gill Bustamante is a professional artist based in East Sussex who creates large semi-abstract landscape, seascape and wildlife paintings in oil on canvas. Her painting style is very distinct and often fuses art-nouveau, impressionist and semi-abstract techniques with traditional portraiture that reflect her love of nature, animals, birds and the flora and fauna of the landscapes around her. She loves the ancient landscapes of England and her paintings often reflect the magical elements that such landscapes have. Gill’s main working method has been the development of a painting style she terms ‘memory impressionism’. This method involves going walking somewhere, looking at and absorbing the things she sees and experiences, and then returning home to her studio to try and capture an echo or essence of the place from memory - including any wildlife she may have seen. By this method, she captures precise moments in times at different seasons and the feeling she has about them. Gill completed a fine art degree in Brighton in 1983 and has painted since she was three. In her own words: “Painting always makes me happy along with cake, bunnies, driving erratically, BBC 6 music and totally irreverent comedy”.
