Colin Middleton MBE RHA RUA (1910-1983)
Dandelions in a Landscape
Oil on panel, 17.5 x 20.5cm (7 x 8")
Signed with monogram. Another abstract composition verso.
Still life paintings occur rarely in Colin Middletons work, with a small number of flower paintings in the late 1930s and very early 1940s, and then a series of more gestural and abstracted paintings of sunflowers in the 1960s, but occasionally he also integrated flowers as a crucial detail within the landscape, as in the present painting or in Edge of the Fields (1957). Both these paintings use the bright colour and strong, flattened leaf forms to assert the surface of the canvas and to add drama to the distance into which the landscape stretches.
