The peacock’s garden is a large colourful semi-abstract oil painting of a peacock in a dreamlike English landscape. The painting is art nouveau and contemporary in style and plays on the contrast between a recognizable riverbank (the river Rother) with wildflowers, trees and a cornfield and a whimsical rendering of the peacock who seems to be unravelling like thread and becoming part of his garden. The painting was inspired by a walk I took in the Burwash area of Sussex. I was walking in beautiful countryside through a meadow and then I heard a peacock which drew me over to the fence of a hidden mansion behind a small forest. I could not see the peacock but I could hear him and see a bit of his garden – hence the name. I find peacocks exotic and very beautiful and I felt like a voyeur (which I was) as I tried to get better glimpses of a river and fields and flowers beyond the garden of the mansion. The painting captures for me the feeling of seeing something lovely and mystical and completely out of my reach but I was happy to see it all the same. It is 40x40x1.5 inches on deep edge canvas, white edges, ready to hang.

Gill Bustamante, a contemporary British painter, is renowned for her distinctive artistry that breathes life into large semi-abstract oils on canvas, drawing inspiration from the wonders of nature. Specializing in creating expansive semi-abstract landscape, seascape, and wildlife paintings, Gill has carved out a unique style that seamlessly blends art-nouveau, impressionist, and semi-abstract techniques with a touch of traditional portraiture. Her artistic vision is deeply rooted in a profound love for nature, animals, birds, and the rich flora and fauna that grace the landscapes surrounding her.

Central to Gill's creative process is a method she terms 'memory impressionism.' This approach involves immersing herself in nature, going for walks to observe and absorb the essence of the landscapes, and then returning to her studio to translate those experiences onto canvas. The result is a collection of artworks that capture the echoes and essences of the places she explores, often including the wildlife encountered during her walks. This distinctive method allows Gill to convey the feelings and impressions she has about these locations, offering viewers a glimpse into the profound connection she shares with the natural world. Gill Bustamante's artistic focus extends to the ancient landscapes of England, and her paintings frequently reflect the spiritual elements inherent in such revered locales.
