New Beginnings
New Beginnings by Gill Bustamante is an original oil painting in an ethereal semi-abstract style, depicting a roebuck deer standing within a woodland glade. Vibrant and multi-coloured, the piece suggests trees, leaves, and dappled spring light filtering through the forest. The roebuck, only half-formed, gazes at the viewer with the proud and haughty presence that roe deer so often embody. Towards the center of the canvas, three subtle shapes appear as portals or openings, hinting at the possibility of passage into another world.
The painting is inspired by the artist’s walks in the ancient woodland copses of Sussex, where the sense of stepping into another realm often arises. The frequent encounters with deer in southern England add to this magical feeling, as if each sighting were a doorway into something unknown. Anyone who has walked in woodland will recognize the thrill of glimpsing a clearing or path beyond, a moment filled with both mystery and possibility. It is this enchantment of the forest that has inspired so many fairy tales and folklore, and the painting captures that timeless wonder.

Artist’s Vision
gill bustamante
Gill is a British visual artist who creates semi-abstract landscapes that transcend mere representation, capturing the soul of a place rather than just its physical form. Inspired by her walks through nature, she absorbs the sights, scents, and energy of the landscape, later distilling these impressions from memory onto canvas. This intuitive approach allows her to preserve the most vivid and emotive elements, evoking the essence of a season or terrain. Birds and wildlife often emerge within her compositions, infusing her work with movement, life, and a deep connection to the natural world.
