Jo Quigley
Westminster Walk II-original impressionism cityscape painting-contemporary Art

2024

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Westminster Walk II" by Jo Quigley is a striking example of contemporary impressionism, rendered in acrylic on canvas. This artwork offers a compelling glimpse into the vibrant life of Westminster, blending urban energy with artistic flair. In this piece, Quigley skillfully captures the essence of London's iconic landmarks—the silhouette of Big Ben and the London Eye—emerging gracefully across the river. The composition is enhanced by a thoughtfully chosen color scheme of blue, grey, and brown, which evokes the atmospheric charm of a bustling cityscape. The scene is alive with figures walking along the pavement, their forms rendered as silhouettes that suggest a narrative of daily life and movement. The painting's contemporary impressionist style is characterized by its loose brushwork and dynamic use of color, which together create a sense of depth and rhythm. The cool, muted tones of blue and grey contrast with the warm, earthy browns, adding both serenity and warmth to the urban setting. The artist's choice of colors and composition invites viewers to pause and reflect on the intersection of modernity and tradition in one of London's most famous locales. "Westminster Walk II" not only celebrates the architectural splendor of Westminster but also captures the human element that animates the city. Each figure in the painting seems to tell its own story, contributing to the overall narrative of life in this historic and vibrant area. This original piece is signed by Jo Quigley and is ready to enhance any space with its sophisticated portrayal of London. It is available for viewing and purchase at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and through their online gallery. Whether you are an art collector or a London enthusiast, this artwork offers a unique and evocative representation of one of the city's most cherished landmarks. 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.
