October (surprise?)

June 10, 2026 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized
October – 12” x 16”, acrylic painting

This painting never felt fully realized. I put an afternoon of painting into this piece. I added some subtle opaque touches. I introduce more warm muted reds and some additional clouds.

This new painting was inspired by my daily hikes in the National Forest near my home. Growing up I was fortunate to have a dad who worked for the US Forest Service! We had so many great adventures in the back country.
