The Invitation
The Invitation is a large, ethereal seascape oil painting that offers a captivating view from the beach, stretching across the waves to the sun, sky, and distant seagulls. The painting combines semi-abstract and art-nouveau elements, with thick, expressive brushstrokes capturing the light and energy of the scene. Gentle waves roll over the sand, rendered in impasto with muted whites, creams, yellows, and soft purples, evoking the serenity of the shoreline.
The sun peeks through the clouds, casting three beams of light that form a triangle across the sea, with three seagulls soaring between them. The composition invites you to immerse yourself in the fluidity of nature, capturing not only the transience of sunlight, sea, and sky, but also a sense of mystery—as if the painting is hinting at something beyond what’s immediately visible.
Inspired by the breathtaking Florida skies, where the sunsets and sunrises are ever-changing, The Invitation draws you in, with the seagulls flying off into the distance, urging you to follow and explore what lies beyond.

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.
