Galleries

One of the four paintings I dropped off at Elliott Fouts Gallery in Sacramento, Ca! I had a solo show there back in a February so it was good to add some more pieces to their gallery.

This is one of the paintings I sold opening night at the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The exhibit features 24 of my paintings in a wide variety of sizes. The exhibit is called “Apocalyptic Beauty” it runs through August 6th!

Beauty and Sorrow

July 8, 2019 by Brian Sostrom

Atmosphere and lighting are often components of my paintings that drive my work. Finding form yet maintaining a sense of mystery.

I have often come back to sunsets as a subject. Of course it is an undeniably beautiful transition but there is also a bit of sadness. Everything ends, we all know this and we are endlessly reminded. I guess that is part of the appeal of sunsets, the wedding of beauty and sorrow.

Future Light
