The Haven
Title: The Haven
Description:
The Haven is large glowing green landscape painting of a forest path leading to a farm and its buildings in the distance. It is 40x40x1.5 inches. The farm is intentionally small in the distance and the painting is big which heightens the feeling of a distance and space and the anticipation of arrival. The style is semi-abstract with the sinuous curves of art nouveau and reflects the vibrant colours of summer turning into autumn in English countryside. There are a myriad of rainbow colours in the painting, despite the overall appearance of it being green. These colours reflect differently in different light â just like a real woodland walk does. The impression is of sunlight through trees which range from brilliant white and yellow highlights though to the greens, blues and purples of the shadows of the leaves and the trees. The inspiration for this painting is a real place near Old Heathfield in Sussex where there is a farm I really really wish was mine! Painted on deep edge canvas, white edges, ready to hang, no frame needed and comes with certificate of authenticity 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.
