Summer Riot
Title: Summer Riot
Description:
Summer Riot is a large square semi-abstract landscape painting of a hare in a wild summer meadow. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. The idea of this painting was to show the sheer enthusiasm with which nature expresses itself â even in the smallest corner of a summer field. It is literally exploding with life and energy. The flowers are fairly abstract but hint at buttercups and clover and a mad array of grasses and other wildflowers. The hare is hiding to the right of the centre of the summer explosion and she looks a little confused by it all. The edges are blurred and the paint thickness varies a lot in order to add to the slightly mad energy of it. It was painted after a walk I took recently near the South Downs where the farmland is simply beautiful and a corner of a meadow is endlessly entertaining (to me at least). I did see a hare in the distance but she did pose for more as this one does (I do love artistic license). Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist.

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.
