Beltane (2025)Oil painting
by Gill Bustamante

Beltane is a large panoramic oil painting of a woodland glade in springtime with a stream running through it with the hint of bluebells, wildflowers and blossom trees. It is 60x36x1.5 inches. The style of the painting is contemporary with art nouveau elements to it. The viewer is transported into the landscape between two shady banks on either side of a stream with the bluebells and blossom and a clearing beyond. A meadow can be glimpsed through the trees and it shimmers with the possibility of something about to be revealed. I called it Beltane (an ancient celebration of the start of summer made on May 1st) as I was in the area that inspired this painting for me on that day in 2025 (Mayfield in Sussex). I love the birdsong and the abundance of nature in May and could well believe myself transported to some otherworldly place when I was looking at this. It is dedicated to all those with a romantic soul who love landscapes and nature and feel they sound be protected. Painted on deep edge canvas, ready to hang and comes with certificate of authenticity.
