“I painted on site the day before the Westinghouse Building was demolished. While painting I met a local resident, a foreign student, a drug dealer, and another artist. They expressed a mix of hope, loss, indifference, and inspiration. I tried to represent these sentiments in this piece.” – Jessica Dalrymple

End Of An Era, 30 x 50, oil on linen This painting was done for an exhibit at the New Jerssey School of Architecture which spoke to the demolition of the long standing Westinghouse Factory in Newark, NJ

Theater Town

“Theater Town” is the 5th Ar+chaeology exhibit curated by Matthew Gosser and hosted by the NJIT College of Architecture & Design.

“The first (exhibit) curated by Matthew Gosser, evokes the days when Newark was home to as many as 100 theaters. . . most were torn down. . . Others. . . have had their lobbies turned into store fronts for selling sneakers or discount goods.  A sense of their former dignity and glamour is captured in poignant oil sketches by the talented Jessica Dalrymple.”

 “Looking at a fellow artist’s contributions – Jessica Dalrymple’s painting of Ian Marvey’s Red Hook community farm – Donohue remarked, “this is proof that you can have a gentleman’s farm in New York City.” As long as the art sells, the show itself will lend a hand in producing more of such proof. “
