These paintings of Karla Wozniak play with our perception of the typical American landscape. The painter likes to play with elements like texture, space and illusion, as it's apparent in the gallery above.
Her method of melding these elements together have created these wonderful works of art. The artwork is cute and bright but there’s a statement underlying the colorful brushstrokes. Inspired by the places she visits while road tripping through the United States, her curiosity into rural and urban development issues and the dramatic change of cities over time is evident.
