[edit] Summary

Untitled (1963) by Jane Frank (Jane Schenthal Frank, 1918-1986): 45"X18.5". Mixed media (oil, spackle, charred driftwood, glass, crushed graphite, and canvas collage on canvas)

(The title of this painting may be "Pools Island". See Image talk:JaneFrankMixedMedia63.jpg.)

This 1963 work on canvas is typical of Jane Frank's production during the early to middle 1960's. Speaking of Jane Frank's "Crags and Crevices", another mixed media painting done a bit earlier in the same period, Professor Phoebe Stanton of Johns Hopkins University, writes:

"Nothing in the painting is still, for the big forms seem to hover in mid-air, colliding as they fall. There are provocative and startling contrasts between passages of thin, transparent paint and thick impasto, filled with striatures left by the palette knife." (Phoebe Stanton, "The Sculptural Landscape of Jane Frank" [1968, 120pp.], p.14).

Professor Stanton's description fits the painting we see here about as well.
