Exuberance, summer landscape with swallows
Title: Exuberance, summer landscape with swallows
Description:
Exuberance is a 36x30x1.5 inches oil painting of a vibrant summer landscape with swallows inspired by the South Downs in Sussex. It was made after a walk I took near Selmeston when the swallows were swooping over the flowers and corn fields. It was a warm day and the air was full of birds and insects and flower seeds and the sights and scents of July were in full performance. The background of the painting, including the sides of the canvas, are dark green blue and the thicker paint towards the centre shows the scene exploding out of the canvas as if it arriving from another universe. This is because summer in countryside feels that way to me. It is transient and loud and quite magical and so I have tried to show the effect it has when you receive so much information to your senses all at once! This painting is dedicated to everyone who assists the South Downs environment and its nature to remain unspoilt. Painted on deep edge canvas, ready to hang, no frame needed, comes with a certificate of authenticity.

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. Gillâs main working method has been the development of a painting style she terms âmemory impressionismâ. 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: âPainting always makes me happy along with cake, bunnies, driving erratically, BBC 6 music and totally irreverent comedyâ.
