Artist Comments
A family portrait style painting of artist Jessica JH Roller's four cats. She stylized the animals' features, focusing on each subject's unique patterns and markings. Jessica placed the cats on a glowing gold backdrop and added small geometric details throughout the image to balance the composition.

About the Artist
A few months after Jessica JH Roller and her husband were married, they adopted two young Siamese cats from a shelter -- Tony and Larry. Jessica quickly fell deeply in love with the kittens and says the cats changed her. "They opened my eyes - I started to notice birds, trees, water, color, everything. It was as if the artist inside had been unleashed.” Jessica uses bold colors and primitive linework to create whimsical, expressive portraits. She intends to capture real or imagined moments that are both common and extraordinary.
