Artist Comments
A playful and harmonious scene of a woman riding on the tail of a blue whale, created in artist Jessica JH Roller's signature folk-art style. Jessica says the piece is based on the poem:A time of unevenness and thrill,The days of Springtime that speak of Summer's promise,But the days flatten into a gentle wake,that delivers wisdom and safety.
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.
