Her spirals and grids offer us personal and social messages that vanish into graphic images. "Such words and phrases as: Obsessive, Pressures, And On and On, serve as titles...the words stimulate viewer participation and experience." Edith was influenced by the abstract expressionist painters of the 50"s and 60's, and contemporary artists of her time: Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning, Philip Guston, Adolph Gottlieb, Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell, Barnett Newman, Ad Reinhardt, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still.
