Three small acrylic paintings, each 5″x7″. I am working on small pieces in preparation for larger works. The middle painting just sold this morning.

Best Nine
I wasn’t going to do it this year, but my will is weak. Here are my best nine from Instagram!
Thank you all for so much support in 2019. As an introvert sharing my art online runs contrary to all of my solitary instincts. I am alive, inspired and motivated so 2020, be gentle.
Abend Gallery Promo
Promo photograph for Abend Gallery in Denver, Colorado. I have solo show at this great gallery in August of 2020! This is going to be a huge exhibit and I am digging in to make my very best work.
About the artist:
My name is Brian Sostrom. I am a full-time painter, and a lifetime painter, living in North Idaho. I paint what I consider to be psychological landscapes. Inspired by nature but never striving to do what the camera can.

Winter Way
This is the third painting in this little series. The painting is my favorite of the group because I am a fan of interesting mark making and simplicity. Creating something seemingly minimal and effortless is often incredibly difficult. This is where all of my years of painting work in my favor.
Forest Passages
Two moody forest scenes. I prepared so many 12” boards that I keep painting images this size! It is a fun scale to work on as it allows for a little quicker experimentation. Ultimately I need to move back to larger panels for my 2020 exhibits.
Trace of Magic
A simple little study in preparation for grander pieces.
The Sound
I took a proper photo of this finished painting. This one is only 12″x12″, I definitely plan on doing larger works with this moody atmosphere.
Throwback in the ocean
Throwback to some 21”x8” wave paintings I sold through the RiverSea Gallery in Astoria Oregon this summer.
