Great expanses

April 22, 2019 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized
Expanse 24”x24” acrylic

I have always loved big open spaces. Something that is getting harder to find in our modern world.

One of many magical things about water is the open distance. People often suggest I add a boat or plane to my paintings… no.

New light today

Reckoning 24”x18” acrylic

I have been recycling painting panels lately. Finding old paintings, removing the paint and starting new work. I dug this one out, always drawn to something about it. I put a few hours into it yesterday. Now it will live to fight another day, like me.

To the North!

Northern Magic 14”x11” acrylic on board

I had a little commission painting this week. It was fun trying to create the magical feel of the aurora borealis.

The client is excited. Now I just need to varnish and sign the painting… and wait for the frame to show up!
