Shoal (WIP)

April 12, 2016 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

I’m continuing on with more dream like landscape paintings. This one is also a 16″x16″ acrylic painting.

I will finish the painting this week and post a proper photograph then!

I completed the 16″x16″ acrylic painting that I was working on last week. It has a real glow in person.

Pond Friends

We have had a run of unusually warm weather for Early April. Into the 80’s already?!?!

One benefit to the warmth is watching the critters in my pond really wake up with the warming water temperatures. The pond is home to koi, goldfish, catfish, turtles, frogs, crayfish, trapdoor snails and a lot of insect life. I took this short video to give you a glimpse into the world. Notice a turtle appears center frame!

I am starting work on some new pieces. These are all going to be 16″x16″ acrylic paintings.

Dreamy lake imagery, atmospheric and calm. This is the first one mostly finished but still a work in progress.

Make You Blue

This is another painting trying to find that balance between something and nothing. I painted this in tandem with “I Hear The Owl”.

This is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.

I Hear The Owl.

I have been working on some moody forest paintings inspired by the winter gloom of the Pacific Northwest.

This particular piece is an 18″x18″ acrylic painting.

Pendleton road trip!

April 2, 2016April 2, 2016 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

I went to Pendleton for my second solo art show. This is something I was selected for about a year ago and have been working towards the event with a lot of enthusiasm. I am seeking out more solo exhibitions for art exposure but also my love of road trips and adventure.
