Evening with a Friend — Original Oil Painting

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.

Original oil painting: This is the one original painting of Evening with a Friend. It measures 8×10 in and is currently available for $1,500.

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.
