About The Artwork
Some pieces start out as accidents. A misbehaving child decided to squirt paint all over one of my works in progress, and I was forced improvise a new style. This piece emerged from that process of initial pain, surprise, and eventual success. I decided to use this scraped and textured style of work on a painting after our family's brown and white basenji passed away. I used the color palette of one of my favorite photographs of him looking up from the grass as the basis. As textures and layers were built up with each scrape of paint, an abstracted heart shape emerged out of the expressive process.

Michael Roller is an abstract artist based in Cincinnati, Ohio. With a background in industrial design, Roller approaches art using a creative process that is both structured and improvisational. Through layering acrylic paints, he creates abstract compositions inspired by digital culture—balancing control and spontaneity. Small rectangles, parallel lines, and intersecting curves are common motifs in his work, with each painting based on personal memories, artifacts, and emotions. The result is a body of work that explores the intersection of design and abstract art, with each painting offering a glimpse into his relationship with the world.
