My Kind of Weirdo

March 11, 2020 by Brian Sostrom, posted in poem
7B Studio, late night

Time relentlessly washing over, eroding and churning. I find myself surprisingly old, solitary and drifting into eccentricity. Each morning I wonder, “what kind of weirdo are you today?” Time reveals my charming weirdo ways.

Gentle Fade

Gentle Fade, 18”x18” acrylic

Atmospherics and lighting are always intriguingly me. When nature stops me in my tracks, I take note.

Mountain High & Pink, 5”x5” acrylic

Two small paintings are headed off to Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. I seem to be shipping a lot of little art their way lately. Come August I will have my huge solo show at Abend… excited but so much to do!

So It Goes

March 6, 2020 by Brian Sostrom, posted in art
So It Goes, 12”x12” acrylic

I just finalized this water piece. It was hanging out in the studio for a week and needed a little attention.

The title was stuck in my mind while I was painting this. It’s a famous line from a Kurt Vonnegut book.

Balance

March 4, 2020 by Brian Sostrom, posted in art
Balance, 12”x16” acrylic

I am working on a series of sky-scapes. The balance of subtle and bold. This one has a bit of newly found magic.

Balance is a difficult concept for me. I have never found a great work life balance. I get a little obsessed.

Final photograph of this piece. I still have to decide which one of my shows to place this painting in.
