Lisa Bisbee
Royal Albert Hall-original modern London cityscape oil painting-contemporary art

2025

About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Queen Victoria laid the foundation stone in 1867 in memory of her husband. I first fell in love with Albert while watching Netflix "The Young Victoria" British period drama film. Such a romantic, that Prince Albert, or maybe it was just the actor. Either way, I'm an Anglophile. When Adele performed at the concert with banter saying "Royal Albert F%@K!Ng Hall", that's when I put the venue on my "to-do" list.  There's a rule in oil painting called "fat over lean" meaning that the pigment needs to have more oil content than the previous layers. It acts like glue for the next layers. These layers are vivid, I used Gapka fluorescent oil paints for the potent color." - Lisa Bisbee This oil painting portrays the iconic Royal Albert Hall in London, England, with a vibrant and expressive impressionistic style. The grand, circular building is depicted in warm hues of red, orange, and yellow, accented with blue and purple details, creating a lively contrast. The textured brushstrokes bring out the architectural intricacies of the domed roof, arched windows, and ornate façade. A bold pink sky in the background adds a surreal and energetic atmosphere, emphasizing the Hall's prominence and cultural significance. The overall composition celebrates the grandeur of this historic landmark with a modern artistic twist. This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Artist biography: Lisa Bisbee is a contemporary cityscape artist based in New York City. In her ongoing series of over 50 oil paintings titled "Bright Lights Pink City," Bisbee captures snapshots of urban architecture within a dreamlike atmosphere. Her work portrays both ordinary moments of daily city life and iconic landmarks such as the Guggenheim, Brooklyn Bridge, and Washington Square Park. Navigating the concrete jungle is an exhilarating experience for her, teeming with anticipation at every street corner. She aims to encapsulate the magical sensation of seeing the city with fresh eyes, imbuing her artwork with the essence of this exciting perspective. Through her art, she invites viewers to embark on a journey that renews their connection to the vibrant spirit of NYC, sparking a renewed sense of wonder and appreciation for its enchanting allure. Bisbee's NYC series of over 50 oil paintings depicts her adventures through the city, using vivid colors to showcase a vibrant metropolis. Influenced by her study of art history, particularly the Fauvism movement, she adopts the movement’s unique arrangement of colors—offbeat and unreal. She blends this concept with the exciting energy of New York City, aiming for the vibrancy to pop off the canvas much like how modern technology allows filters to alter photos and edit reality. Her palette includes neon pinks, fluorescent oranges, deep purples, bright yellows, and blues. Using Gapka oil paint from a small handmade artisan paint company, the colors achieve incredible saturation. Each painting in Bisbee's series serves as a snapshot of her urban expeditions through the city. Inspired by her photographs, she translates the experience of being in New York into joyful, vibrant oil paintings. Her work illustrates urban architecture and city life, from typical moments at crosswalks to landmark destinations like the Guggenheim, Brooklyn Bridge, and Washington Square Park. She captures experiences like viewing the skyscrapers from the East River ferry or seeing NYC from a bird's-eye view at sunset, depicting these moments with a blend of excitement and anticipation. Discover the captivating contemporary cityscape paintings by Lisa Bisbee, available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art both in our London gallery and online. Immerse yourself in the beauty of these stunning pieces by exploring our online collection or visiting our gallery for an unforgettable experience. “In my artistic pursuit, I find immense joy and gratitude by infusing moments with a touch of romance. Through carefully constructed scenes in my oil paintings, I have the power to transform reality into uplifting and inspiring depictions that pay homage to the inherent goodness found in people, places, and things. Regardless of whether I’m faced with gritty or overlooked settings, I dedicate myself to envisioning their metamorphosis into spaces filled with dignity, fun, frolic, happiness, and wonder. By offering fresh perspectives on familiar sights, I create vibrant and surreal renditions of the natural world that invigorate attitudes and foster a deep appreciation for our beautiful human existence. By employing a vivid color palette and whimsical lines that dance in rhythmic patterns across the canvas, I envision of a better world infusing life into my brushstrokes to vividly express the emotions stirred during my urban escapades in the heart of New York City.”-Lisa Bisbee
