"A favorite work of the artist portrays a felt oneness between child
and cat while at the same time conveys a tension expressed by the
stiffness of the cat's form in it desire for escape surrounded by the
soft curves of the child's body filled with pleasure at her peaceful
capture. The starkness of the line forces this image from the commonplace
and into a realm of the purest graphic representation. Frank's work
leaves the viewer with an evocation of a rounded Picasso or a smooth
Kollewitz. Frank combines a peculiarly feminine grace and lyricism with
a starkness and power of vision rarely projected by artists of either
sex."
-- Lyman Balmuth, writer for The Village Voice and The Boston Globe
