Color Shifts (SOLD)

April 15, 2020 by Brian Sostrom, posted in art, business

The last two weeks we saw the final gasps of winter. It seems appropriate that I have just sold this cold landscape painting as a farewell. The creation of this one is detailed on my YouTube channel.

This painting captures the spring transition here on Lake Pend Oreille. Currently much less snow than when I painted this a few weeks back.

ROYGBIV (going to Jackson)

March 5, 2020 by Brian Sostrom, posted in art

Today I am shipping this painting to Horizon Fine Art Gallery in Jackson, Wyoming.

Memory is a funny thing. Some of it is etched pretty deep into my mind, some of it takes flight. I learned the acronym “ROYGBIV” in a high school science class. I can’t look at a rainbow with out that popping into my mind. It is annoying, thanks school!

I sold this painting last weekend while it was a WIP through my Instagram stories. It always picks me up, selling work unexpectedly. I immediately waste the money on art supplies, circle of life.

I love the somber quality of fog drifting through the forest. Today is sunny and that’s not bad either.

This is part of my “Woodland” series. There is a video about the creation on my YouTube channel.

I noticed it was bright and clear this morning just after 6:00 AM. The days are getting longer and I am excited!

Guide (on the easel)

More snow coming, more winter paintings ahead. It felt like spring was coming early, I knew it was just a temporary state. Just another excuse to paint some more winter imagery. There is a feeling I am chasing with some of these works… so more opportunities.

Through the Wood

Continuing on with my forest imagery. I am putting together a collection of paintings for my “Woodlands” exhibit opening in May. The exhibit is at Higher Art Gallery in Traverse City, Michigan.
