Summertime Riverbank

Title: Summertime Riverbank
Description: Summertime Riverbank is a semi abstract painting of the wildflowers and teasel seen by an English river in July. It is 36x30x1.5inches. In the foreground you can see the lilacs and pinks yellows of teasel and other wildflowers and behind them the hint of a calm river and the opposite bank. The painting is semi-abstract and unique in style as though it is an oil painting it has the fluidity of a watercolour. It is wispy and ethereal just like nature and the seasons themselves are. The painting was inspired by a walk and boat trip along the banks of the river Ouse near Lewes. It aims to capture a perfect moment in summer but reflects the transient nature of summer in the UK at the same (fleeting). Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, no frame needed, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity and gifts from the artist.

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”.
