Description:
A energetic depiction of a dog mid-leap, suspended above a warm-toned floor. Crisp ink lines define the dog’s form, from the perked ears to the wagging tail, while transparent watercolor washes capture the sleek gray fur and subtle shading. The background is a bold, vertical wash of golden ochres that contrasts with the cool tonalities of the dog, creating a strong sense of movement and buoyancy. The reflected shadow on the ground echoes the animal’s dynamic pose, grounding the scene. This piece showcases Catherine O’Donnell’s playful handling of media, balancing lively line work with expressive colour to convey motion and spirit.
