Philadelphia painter Scott Noel wrote in a catalog of Trefny's works in 1994,
"In their orchestration of objects, fabrics and flowers, Frank Trefny's still
life paintings evoke a world of harmonious, sensual richness. The pictures are
lush and full, celebrating the pleasures of beautiful things and beautiful
painting, but the images also summon complex, layered feelings, the joy of their
painterly sensuality leavened with wit and melancholy."
In Art in
America magazine (May 1996), esteemed art critic and contributing editor Gerrit
Henry writes, "Trefny is a master at turning realistic configurations into
painterly abstractions, and his unusually large (for still life) canvases can be
read over and over again for their many incidents of exalted painterly brushwork
in his renderings of brocades, Chinese screens, pagoda tables, folded and open
Oriental fans, homegrown vegetables, flower arrangements and spreads of
brilliant silks. Trefny haunts antique and junk stores before spending days
assembling his "rude objets" into a setup he can live with--and paint. The
results are astonishingly beautiful canvases, presenting many vistas all at
once."
