Wren and Pepper, Original Painting

2021

Artist Comments
Artist Jessica JH Roller shows a young girl hugging a black cat. Both with striking green eyes, the duo is set against a bright purple background. "Pepper is Wren's cat," says Jessica. "Wren got Pepper on Christmas morning three years ago, when she was seven. There has never been a sweeter bond between a little girl and a cat."

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 simple linework to create whimsical, expressive portraits. She intends to capture real or imagined moments that are both common and extraordinary.
