Goldfinch Zinnias, Original Painting

2024

Artist Comments
Zinnia seeds planted in late spring bloom into vibrant flowers in midsummer. They attract many pollinators, among them are goldfinches. The painting depicts that familiar scene. Bold, graphic lines define the subjects and create a cheerful atmosphere.

About the Artist
Artist Jessica JH Roller paints whimsical and playful compositions of animals and people, marked by bold colors and primitivist linework. She distills a scene into a few simple shapes, using color to create contrast and vibrancy, often choosing palettes that reflect pop culture. "My adopted kittens, Tony and Larry, opened my eyes and unleashed the artist inside me," shares Jessica. "After, I started to notice birds, trees, color, everything." Jessica brings to life her dynamic creations in the comfort of her studio in her century-old home. She enjoys listening to music and audiobooks while painting with her 18-year-old acrylic-covered easel. When not painting, Jessica cherishes time with her family and five cats, teaches yoga, and enjoys cycling along the river.
