Jessica JH Roller
The Violinist's Dogs, Original Painting

2020

About the Item

Artist Comments
"This piece was inspired by a violin teacher and her four dogs," shares artist Jessica JH Roller. Created in Jessica's signature style, the four happy pets appear against a backdrop of deep red. Accents of gold and bronze provide an added layer of form, color, and whimsy.


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.

  • Dog Ball Bird, Original Painting
    By Jaime Ellsworth
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    Artist Jaime Ellsworth captures a clever brown dog skillfully balancing a red ball and a black bird on its head. With curious gazes, the critters turn to their right as if something has piqued their interest. The two-tone backdrop of ochre and moss green sets the stage for this endearing scene.


    About the Artist
    Jaime Ellsworth paints animals. Her career as a cowhand never got off the ground, so she stumbled into art never knowing it would complement her passion for animals so completely. Most subjects are her own, but lately she has expanded out of her corral to include bears and beasts not commonly seen on San Juan Island, in the Pacific Northwest, where she's lived for the last 30 years. She suspects it will be years before she runs out of inspiration or has jeans that aren’t covered with paw prints or paint.
