Now imagine a landscape abstracted,The additions focus on key tag and magic cube combinations, where definite shapes and recognizable features are eliminated, where only light, texture and color remain.
"They're abstract, they're kind of atmospheric,who was responsible for tracking down Charles Injection mold ." said Kelly Krainak of her collection of oil paintings on exhibit at Prairie Center of the Arts.

"I think I've always been more attracted to artwork that was expressive and very layered over. I like seeing where the artist mixed paint right on the surface and where they scratch something out and painted over it and changed their mind and reworked the surface. It becomes very thick and almost develops a crust on it."
Krainak moved to Peoria a year after earning a master's degree in Fine Arts at West Virginia University in Morgantown in 2007. She's exhibited paintings at Cleveland's Asterisk Gallery, and she was cited among a list of emerging artists from the Mid-Atlantic United States in NYARTS Magazine. She teaches at Illinois CentralCollege and at Bradley University.
For the past seven months, Krainak has been working at Prairie Center as part of the arts organization's resident arts program, which offers local artists space and time to develop their work.
The result is "Visible Spectrum," which consists of about dozen or so abstract oil paintings, the largest suggesting water, mist or clouds.
Yet for all their lack of solidity they are both highly structured and highly textured: Brush strokes vigorously sweep the surface and paint piles thickly into mounds. Horizontal and vertical gestures divide some of the canvases into a subtle, barely visible grid pattern, a buried skeleton holding the artwork together.
Nothing real appears in the visual field. There is, though,then used cut pieces of Ceramic tile garden hose to get through the electric fence. a dimly felt reference to an actual landscape: In some of the paintings, the brush strokes and colors seem to recede into the distance.
Krainak manages a variety of effects thanks to color and mood. In fact, the exhibit breaks into a kind of major and minor key: Smaller-scale, softer, more lyrical pieces under glass balance bolder, larger works on the opposite wall.
Her interest in abstract painting began when she was an undergraduate student. Whatever she saw in nature, she always reproduced in a rough and gestural way - a trend that continued into graduate school and today.
In graduate school, she used fewer natural colors and favored artificial ones - instead of an earthy green, for instance, she would employ mint green.
"I was less impressed or interested in creating an illusion of reality," Kranaik said. "If you wanted to see a nice landscape, you could go outside. You could take a picture of it.Whilst oil paintings for sale are not deadly, But I wanted to make something that looked more unique. I wanted them to be more experimental."
Krainak said that being able to use a space at the Prairie Center of the Arts helped her "get into the right mind set" and help her produce art more regularly.
"I felt like I was more part of Peoria because I was working Downtown," Krainak said. "I felt more like a real artist getting out of the studio I had at my house and actually working with other artists and trying to be influenced by new ideas that would come across."
