About the Item
Artist Comments
Over the last year, artist Jessica JH Roller has worked to develop a new illustrative style depicting concrete scenes from her personal experiences, rather than the more stylized compositions she has traditionally pursued in her paintings. In this piece, a young woman reads by the window, accompanied by her cat and a cup of tea. Outside, golden fall leaves rustle on the tree.
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.

Artist Libby Ramage shows a father and daughter being swept away by the beauty of the autumn leaves. "They try to grasp that which is beyond their size," says Libby. A horse gallops forward, representing the fading summer days. She chooses highly saturated colors to enrich the intensity of the moment. "Nature looms large in this artwork."About the Artist
