Description of the Artwork “Chaos in the Meadow”
Chaos in the Meadow is a joyful semi abstract oil painting illustrating the sheer chaos of nature that you find in a flower meadow in summer. It is 36x30x1.5 inches. The painting is semi abstract in style and is extremely colourful. Many different types of flower and grasses are hinted at and all of them are trying to get attention which causes a beautiful chaos. This painting was made after a walk on the Sussex South Downs and I love how this one tiny patch of wildflower meadow showed me so much life and enthusiasm. I have used layers and glazes of colours to give this painting an iridescent glow and its colours change throughout the day because of this - almost like stained glass. Behind the flowers you can just about see some of the fields below the hills looking towards Lewes. It is dedicated to all those walkers, cyclists and environmentalists that I meet on the downs who are helping to keep this area beautiful and its nature thriving. Painted on deep edge canvas, edges white.
Artwork in the interior
Gill Bustamante, United Kingdom
I am a professional artist based in East Sussex who creates large semi abstract landscape, seascape and wildlife paintings in oil on canvas. My painting style is very distinct and fuses art-nouveau, impressionist and semi-abstract techniques with traditional portraiture that reflect my love of nature, animals, birds and the flora and fauna of the landscapes around me. My main working method has been the development of a painting style I term ‘memory impressionism’. This method involves going walking somewhere, looking at and absorbing the things I see and experience, and then returning home to my studio to try and capture an echo or essence of the place from memory - including any wildlife I may have seen. By this method I can capture essences and echoes of places and the feeling I have about them. I love the ancient landscapes of England and my paintings often reflect the spiritual elements that such landscapes have.
