GILL BUSTAMANTE | Oil | 122x91.5 cm • 48x36 in

One Enchanted Summer


One Enchanted Summer by Gill Bustamante is a multicoloured semi-abstract landscape painting of a summer meadow alive with trees and swallows. At first glance, the piece appears entirely abstract, as a myriad of colours bursts outward from the center of the canvas in pinks, greens, purples, deep blues, and yellows. Upon closer inspection, two swallows can be seen dancing above pink wildflowers, set against a backdrop of dark trees with glimpses of distant fields peeking through the branches.

The inspiration for the painting comes from exploring the Mayfield and Burwash areas of East Sussex, where the scenery shifts quickly from gully streams to rolling hills, meadows, and ancient trees shaped over centuries by sheep and deer. The area’s old houses and farms still carry a medieval character, enriching its atmosphere. In these places, the artist often feels as though she could stumble upon portals into other worlds, a fantasy that lingers with each walk. This sense of discovery and enchantment is woven into the fabric of the painting itself.

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.
