  Last night a friend and I visited the Philadelphia Museum of Art and enjoyed the jazz music performed live, delicious spinach citrus salad, and a stroll through the galleries.  We only had a little bit of time before the galleries closed so we chose the contemporary wing, which also included Renoir, Van Gogh and many Victorian masterpieces.  We talked to the guards, looked at the art and gathered inspiration while walking through the halls.  It was a good time and had been far too long since I had been to the museum!

Jessica Libor at the Philadelphia Museum of Art with "Philadelphia Dusk"

Jessica Libor at the Philadelphia Museum of Art with “Philadelphia Dusk”

Hello friends, I am completely ecstatic to be a part of a super cool event being held at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.  I was asked to participate by donating a piece, and have created “Philadelphia Dusk.”   In “Philadelphia Dusk,” a 30″ by 40″ oil painting, I wanted to capture that moment in the evening where the light becomes golden, and bathes everything in an unearthly beauty. Any grittiness is washed away for a moment as the city becomes an idealized version of itself: golden, optimistic, a city of dreams. The clouds framing the city become a perfect backdrop for the light, inspired by Maxfield Parrish’s gilded fairy tale clouds. Here’s the piece.

The piece will be available to bid on that evening at the event during a silent auction.  The event is called “Fall into Street Art”, and will be held in an underground passageway beneath the Philadelphia Museum of Art.     Here’s what the space looks like.
