Summer Vibrates is a colourful semi-abstract landscape oil painting of a summer meadow and a swallow. It is 24x18x1.5. It is art nouveau and semi abstract in style and very vibrant in colour. A swallow is swooping over the meadow and below her there are fields of wheat with wild flowers edging the fields. It was inspired by swallow watching over a field near where I live. There is a shallow valley where in summer heat haze the swallows gather insects over the flowers and wheat fields. This little painting sums up a specific happy moment for me from August a few years ago. It is part of a series of paintings that try to capture the exuberance of Sussex fields and farmland in the summertime. Swallows feature often in my paintings as they are quite simply beautiful little birds and are only in the UK for the summer so it is a happy thing to see them. The painting is ready to hang, has white edges and does not need a frame. Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GLBLmbRgXk

Gill Bustamante Artist
My name is Gill Bustamante and I paint large contemporary landscape and seascape paintings in oil on canvas. They are mostly inspired by the Sussex landscapes I see around me where I live but I tend to reflect any landscape I have seen. My painting style is my own but has elements of Impressionism, semi-abstract and a kind of messy Art Nouveau. I am a keen walker and I paint largely from memory after I have been somewhere and seen something I want to capture the feeling of. This is not just the shapes and colours of a landscape but the wildlife and magical elements that sometimes exist in them too. I am probably a bit of Pagan at heart and it fascinates me to see what emerges onto a canvas once I start to paint with a place in mind - as it is not always obvious what I observed until I try to paint it. I completed a fine art degree in Brighton in 1983 and I have painted since I was three. It always makes me happy along with cake, bunnies, driving erratically, BBC 6 music and totally irreverent comedy.
