Wainio's canvases have been described by art critic Emily Falvey as "fairy-tale landscapes littered with the detritus of contemporary consumerism."
Her body of work has been compared to such works by American painter Jules Olitski.
"The appeal her paintings had came from the same activity of looking that generated their strangeness."
In 2010, Wainio's work was featured in a travelling exhibition, Carol Wainio: The Book, curated by Diana Nemiroff and organized and circulated by Carleton University Art Gallery.
This exhibition displays Wainio's interest in the evolution of fairy-tales, the art of the copyist, industrialization, and the narrative power of images.
