Evening with a Friend

Evening with a Friend is a quiet river or lake at twilight with trees and small boat. The light and color give it a peaceful feeling, with lavender, blue, mauve, muted green carrying much of the mood. It can bring atmosphere into a room without making the space feel busy. The smaller shifts in light, color, and distance give the image more to discover over time.

Evening with a Friend is available as a print for people who want to bring its peaceful feeling into their home. Its light and color work especially well in a space that could use calm color and atmosphere, without overwhelming the room. The print is an easy way to live with the image while keeping the focus on the painting itself.

Printed on stretched canvas with black sides. This is an open-edition print made from Nathan's original painting.

From Nathan: What interested me most in this painting was the light. I wanted lavender and the surrounding colors to work together naturally, while keeping the scene peaceful and full of atmosphere. I like leaving enough room in a painting for the viewer to bring some of their own memories and feelings to it.

Original painting: The 8×10 in original is currently available for $1,500.
