Lullaby 14”x11”

September 5, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

Delicate atmospherics above the big water. A subject that is always intriguing to me, keeps drawing me back.

Mist and Distance 14”x11”

September 3, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

I have returned from Pendleton, closing out my most recent solo show. I came over to the studio to prep some paintings for shipment and decided to get a photo of this painting.

Safe travels on this Labor Day weekend!

Little Pink House

August 5, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

I mailed these small paintings off to a semi-local gallery in Idaho called “Little Pink House Gallery”. The cloud painting is 10″x8″ and the water painting is 10″x10″

Stone and Water 16”x16”

July 30, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

This painting was inspired by the shoreline of Lake Pend Oreille, where I often go walking. There is something magical and intriguing about the rocks fading into the water. This time of year the glow of the waves is especially hypnotic. I do love summer…

The Poet Tells 20”x16”

July 14, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

I am working on a series of storm inspired paintings. Watching a big thunderstorm crawl across the expansive lake gives one a sense of place, a very small place. This particular painting is much more of a calm meditative image. They will get more apocalyptic!

Some Golden Tomorrow

July 7, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

This little 14″x11″ painting is a studio in atmosphere and light, like so much of my work.

I am working on a bunch of new paintings for my upcoming Pendleton, Oregon solo show. I will put this one in a floating frame for the show!

Evening Passage 20”x16”

June 12, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

This is a very recent open acrylic painting. The edges of day and night are always inspiring and contemplative. The mood can be tranquil but there is also the reminder of our time passing.

Throwback Thursday

June 7, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

I know it’s silly but what the heck! These acrylic paintings now reside in Hong Kong, I have sent a surprising amount of work to different folks there… I should be getting better at geography. My art has seen much more of the world than I have… though I have done some traveling!

Small Commission

April 22, 2018 by Brian Sostrom, posted in Uncategorized

This is part of a collection of paintings I am doing on commission. The painting is 7″x9″ and it won’t actually have this frame as the client has something else in mind. This frame actually covers too much of the painting in my mind, when a work is this small every bit counts!
