Gill Bustamante - My name is Gill Bustamante and I paint large colourful semi-abstract magical landscape and wildlife paintings in oil on canvas. Whilst my paintings are mostly inspired by the Sussex landscapes I see around me, I reflect any landscape or seascape I have ever visited. My painting style fuses magical, colourful and ethereal elements along with Impressionist, semi-abstract, Art Nouveau and something I term aEUR~Memory ImpressionismaEURtm. This is where I go walking somewhere rural, look at and absorb the things I see and experience, and then come home and try to capture an echo of the place from memory, including any wildlife I may have seen. My paintings reflect, for me, the spiritual echoes of beautiful places such as those in Sussex and the English countryside generally and it always fascinates me what emerges on to a canvas from a simple memory.

Taken from a close up perspective, they explore female desire and male vulnerability. The male model is the observed rather than the observer.

Artists Describing Their Art:
Chongwu Ao - I, ChongWu AO artist name is Zhongwua>>2a3/4, live in Melbourne, Australia, am an independent contemporary freelance painting Asian artist. I use ink painting on the rice paper and use an abstract approach to depict the feelings and thinking of beauty. My painting shows Asian cultural elements and humanistic spirit and is magnificent, open, natural, and has no limit. Freedom your true feelings is the portrayal of my work. Traditional art is rational, abstract art is irrational. Abstract art pursues the sense of visual pleasure, and pure visual pleasure is the essence of art. Abstract aesthetic is the instinct of human nature, like music and food it is the gift of human freedom. True temperament, true abstraction and figurative art. Let the viewers get free imagination in their appreciation, soar in the space of free imagination...
