About the Item

Rupert Muldoon. Egg tempera on gesso panel in gilt frame. Trees with yellow and golden autumnal leaves reflected in the water. Rupert Muldoon: "Shadowed Waters V was painted in the autumn when it was quite dark, it was twilight, and the sun had set behind the far bank and created patches of shade and light. I really wanted the water to feel like it was moving towards you. The brush strokes in the painting start large and recede as the painting leads your eye further away." Rupert Muldoon traces the ephemeral qualities of the River Avon, a few minutes walk from his home and studio at Trafalgar Park. Working along the same stretch of river as Turner and Constable before him, Muldoon’s observations of the riverbank are taken at closer quarters: he is attracted by the danker more marginal places than his illustrious predecessors. Having trained and worked as a landscape architect and gardener for over a decade, Muldoon has a profound affinity with the landscape and with plants. His observations are at once precise and evocative, and his aim to create an impression - almost like a colour field painting - is entirely absorbing. Muldoon paints in egg tempera, one of the only artists in Britain to use this ancient medium, which allows him to layer translucent glazes upon one another to mesmerising effect. He says: “I paint reflections which mirror the bank, but the river bank itself is a very complicated thing; there are trees, poplars, bits of foliage that dip into the stream, its all moving and trembling, there are birds flitting around… the sound of the water. As I see that image when I’m sitting there, I want to relay all of that onto a board. The way I have found to do it is not to give anything in the painting in much focus. I want it all to seem as if it’s moving, blowing in the breeze, and yet it is an abstraction of what I see.” Beginning with small sketches and then building large colourfield canvases from these and memory, Rupert’s works are reminiscent of Gustav Klimt, Gerhard Richter, and Peter Doig, all of whom he admires for their various approaches to the landscape.
