The Magician is a large colourful oil painting of a kingfisher flying along a river bank of wildflowers in summer in Sussex. The style is art nouveau and expressionist and is very vibrant in its motion and colours. Many layers of paint, some transparent, were used to build it up and the paint is quite thick and textural. The kingfisher is fairly realistic and contrasts with the rest of the scene which is not. She flies along and casts her magic over the river which can be seen glittering between the flowers on the riverbank. It is an exuberant and happy painting as it was made from a memory of my first sighting of a kingfisher along the banks of the River Ouse in Sussex last summer. It was a hot July day and she flew from a branch towards me before she realised I was there. I saw a flash of orange and then a flash of blue as she retreated. I found her and the river and the sounds of water and insects and cows quite magical and wanted to show that surge of happiness in this painting. It is the third painting I have made during coronavirus lockdown 2020 and is dedicated to all those people dreaming of what they will do once it is over. It is 36x48x1.5 inches on deep edge canvas with white edges. Video: https://youtu.be/nMhP1SXozrI

Gill Bustamante is a professional artist based in East Sussex who creates large semi-abstract landscape, seascape and wildlife paintings in oil on canvas. Her painting style is very distinct and often fuses art-nouveau, impressionist and semi-abstract techniques with traditional portraiture that reflect her love of nature, animals, birds and the flora and fauna of the landscapes around her. She loves the ancient landscapes of England and her paintings often reflect the magical elements that such landscapes have. Gill’s main working method has been the development of a painting style she terms ‘memory impressionism’. This method involves going walking somewhere, looking at and absorbing the things she sees and experiences, and then returning home to her studio to try and capture an echo or essence of the place from memory - including any wildlife she may have seen. By this method, she captures precise moments in times at different seasons and the feeling she has about them. Gill completed a fine art degree in Brighton in 1983 and has painted since she was three. In her own words: “Painting always makes me happy along with cake, bunnies, driving erratically, BBC 6 music and totally irreverent comedy”.
