Heilmann creates bold geometric abstractions using layered acrylic and oil on canvas that share Connors's playful yet rigorous approach to color relationships and form. Her work similarly balances expressive painterly qualities with structured geometric compositions in a contemporary American context.

Sillman's abstract paintings combine oil and acrylic in layered applications that explore the tension between geometric structure and expressive mark making, closely mirroring the qualities seen in Second Table. Her contemporary American practice shares Connors's interest in how color and form interact through accumulated paint layers.

Smith works in a bold contemporary American abstract tradition using mixed paint media on canvas, building layered compositions that foreground color interplay and expressive geometric forms. His prolific investigation of paint application and surface closely parallels the concerns visible in Connors's Second Table.
