So It Goes

March 6, 2020 by Brian Sostrom, posted in art

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.

ROYGBIV (going to Jackson)

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!

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

Drifters

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.

Beneath

I have some 12” in the studio so I took myself way off course and played around with some water imagery. It’s good to break things up from time to time.
