Description
Helen Frankenthaler's work is characterized by her use of large fields of color and a spontaneous, gestural application of paint. She is known for her innovative technique of "soak-stain," which involved thinning the paint and applying it to unprimed canvas, allowing the color to soak into the fibers and create a unique, airy effect. This approach was a departure from the heavily layered and heavily worked surfaces of traditional painting, and it was a major influence on the development of Color Field Painting.
