Framedl 2026-08-01 1/6* Helen Frankenthaler, 'Lot's Wife,' 1971. She named it for how she made it: 'I went back to do something to it and then I thought, no, don't turn back, don't look at it, leave it, it's good. That's why I called it Lot's Wife, because she turned and became a pillar of salt.' Abdicate the process — surrender the urge to revise, or ruin the thing. (Though the working proofs show she did turn back, a little. We all do.) Hint: @frdysk
