ONESTI KRIEGER “THE 16X20 SHOW”

in GALLERY II

Onesti Krieger is a visual artist working in oils and acrylics. She loves painting abstracts and is and is venturing into a more impressionistic style with a recently found love of Plein Air Painting. Painting gives her a precious opportunity to express her life moments and perceptions. She feels art can be found everywhere, in everything, if we just see it with the right eyes.  

Onesti’s goal, through her artworks, is to communicate emotion in a visual experience. Creating art is a form of meditation for her and she feels it is an exchange of energy, a release and gain process. Her mission is to persuade others to feel and think while bringing awareness to the importance of expression.

She believes being involved in art and cultural development within your community is important. She is the current president with Williston Area Visual Artists (WAVA), one of the founding members of Plein Air on the Prairie (POP), a stakeholder for Creative Placemaking (Region 1) in North Dakota, a member of the 4th Street Cultural Corridor committee, and a member of the Art and Wine Walk committee in Williston. She continues to seek ways to add art to her community, while also exploring new artistic opportunities. 

Onesti studied general education at Williston State College and visual arts at Moorhead State University. She is also the Proprietor of Transition Painting based out of Williston, ND.
