This abstract painting by Jeanne M. Connolly is a fluid exploration of movement, color, and emotional resonance. Created with acrylic, watercolor, dye, gouache, and acrylic ink, the work captures the unpredictable beauty of layered water-based media. Vertical sweeps of olive, ochre, and moss green create a sense of downward flow, counterbalanced by softer hues of blush, plum, and lavender that emerge through translucent veils of pigment.

Subtle bursts of brown emerge throughout, punctuating the composition with warmth and contrast. These earthy accents ground the more atmospheric layers, adding visual weight and texture. Connolly’s process embraces spontaneity—allowing the materials to bleed, pool, and interact freely—while guiding the composition with intuitive control. The result is an immersive, meditative work that invites the viewer to drift between structure and fluidity.

The blending of water-soluble pigments creates natural transitions between colors, while the layered application of ink and gouache introduces striking variations in tone and texture. The result is an artwork that feels both intentional and free-flowing—where structured curves and organic material reactions coexist in perfect harmony.
