About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Southbank Carousel" by Jo Quigley is a vibrant and evocative acrylic painting that brings to life the charm and energy of a winter day on London’s Southbank. At the heart of the composition is a beautifully detailed carousel, its bright lights and colorful horses drawing the eye and creating a focal point that contrasts with the more subdued tones of the surrounding city. The carousel, with its festive atmosphere, stands as a symbol of joy and nostalgia, inviting viewers to pause and imagine the music and laughter that accompany this beloved attraction. The painting captures the essence of a crisp winter day, with bare trees lining the walkway, their branches stretching out across the sky and casting intricate shadows on the ground. These shadows, formed by the low winter sun, create a dynamic pattern that guides the viewer’s eye through the scene, from the bustling foreground to the misty outlines of the London Eye in the distance. The figures in the painting, dressed in winter coats, are captured mid-stride, adding a sense of movement and life to the scene. Each person appears absorbed in their own world, whether admiring the carousel, walking their dog, or simply enjoying a leisurely stroll by the river. In the background, iconic London landmarks like Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament anchor the scene, reminding the viewer of the unique setting. Quigley’s skillful use of color and light, combined with her attention to detail, creates a painting that is both serene and full of life. The crisp blue sky and the cool tones of the winter day are beautifully balanced by the warm, inviting hues of the carousel, making "Southbank Carousel" a piece that celebrates the quiet beauty of everyday moments in the city. Available at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online, this painting offers an opportunity to bring a piece of London's charm into your own space, allowing you to enjoy the timeless appeal of Quigley's work from anywhere in the world. 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.
