Roller and his pet chicken, Martha Ann. A publicity picture for a 1970 traveling exhibition. William Rockhill Nelson Gallery, Kansas City, Missouri.
This just came today in an email from the amazing artist Donald Roller Wilson. It shows Roller and his chicken, Martha Ann in Fayetteville, Arkansas in a Confederate cemetery along with two of Roller’s paintings; an oversized ear, and a one-and-only self-portrait which shall become part of the permanent collection of the Crystal Bridges of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas. (The museum started by Alice Walton, one of the heirs to the Walmart fortune, btw) Check out his amazing site and work – if you dare!
