2024

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Immerse yourself in the vibrant pulse of a September afternoon with this evocative cityscape. Captured through the lens of contemporary impressionism, this artwork elegantly portrays the Southbank in London, a nexus of historic charm and modern vibrancy. The scene unfolds along the bustling Southbank, where a leisurely river walk invites visitors to explore the picturesque surroundings. Pedestrians, rendered with a fluid yet suggestive touch, meander along the pavement, their silhouettes merging with the lively rhythm of the city. Above them, the trees stand in full, verdant splendor, their green leaves shimmering under the late afternoon sun, offering a refreshing contrast to the urban backdrop. In the distance, the iconic silhouette of Big Ben stands as a timeless sentinel, subtly framed by the trees on the opposite riverbank. This juxtaposition of the historical and the contemporary creates a dynamic interplay, highlighting the enduring essence of London's architectural heritage amidst the evolving cityscape. The color palette of green, blue, and grey breathes life into the composition, evoking the tranquil yet vibrant mood of the afternoon. The subtle gradations of these colors merge seamlessly, creating a serene yet lively atmosphere that invites viewers to experience the scene’s layered textures and shifting light. 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.
