Helen Frankenthaler "A really good picture looks as if it's happened at once. It's an immediate

image. For my own work, when a picture looks labored and overworked, and

you can read in it—well, she did this and then she did that, and then she did that—there is something in it that has not got to do with beautiful art to me. And I usually throw these out, though I think very often it takes ten of those

ver-labored efforts to produce one really beautiful wrist motion that is

synchronized with your head and heart, and you have it, and therefore it looks as if it were born in a minute." (In Barbara Rose, Frankenthaler (New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc. 1975, p. 85)
