2025

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. In this striking cityscape, Jo Quigley captures the essence of New York’s vibrant 7th Avenue, portraying the relentless energy of the metropolis. The scene is alive with movement as yellow taxis and bustling traffic navigate the wet streets, their headlights reflecting on the slick pavement. Towering billboards dominate the skyline, with bold advertisements illuminating the urban environment. The artist’s use of crisp lines and saturated colors enhances the sense of realism while maintaining a painterly touch, immersing the viewer in the city's unmistakable atmosphere. The play of light and reflections is a standout feature in this piece. The rain-slicked streets act as a mirror, amplifying the glow of neon signs and traffic lights, creating a mesmerizing composition of colors and contrasts. Figures with umbrellas move along the sidewalks, adding a human element to the urban chaos. Quigley’s skillful brushwork masterfully conveys the texture of wet asphalt, the gleam of headlights, and the pulsating energy of a city that never sleeps. This painting is a celebration of movement, commerce, and the dynamic interplay between nature and the man-made world. Through an expert balance of realism and impressionism, Quigley brings to life the energy of a rainy New York evening, drawing the viewer into the heart of the action. This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Artist Biography: Jo Quigley graduated with a BA from Winchester School of Art and an MA in Applied Fine Art from Kingston University. Her confident and distinctive work quickly gained a growing reputation, making her pieces highly sought after. People in the urban environment provide endless fascination for Jo, and much of her work is composed from photographs taken during visits to London. She quietly observes people going about their daily lives, capturing subjects that appear completely natural and un-staged, as they are unaware of being seen. Jo prefers locations where people gather in crowds, resulting in paintings that are both intimate and intense. She aims for viewers to feel involved in the depicted scenes, perhaps even seeing themselves in the crowd. Jo's influences include Pissarro, Hopper, and Lowry, which is evident in her work's depth and observational quality. Her use of deep tray frames adds an elegant, contemporary look to her paintings. Jo is a prizewinning artist and has been shortlisted for several major awards, including BBC Wildlife Artist of the Year 2011, Surrey Artist of the Year 2011, and Artist and Illustrators Artist of the Year in 2013 and 2014.
