Evening Rain captures a moment of quiet beauty in the heart of the city. This original oil pastel piece by Laura Bernardeschi Nelson portrays figures drifting through rain-slicked streets, umbrellas casting soft shadows under glowing city lights. Towering buildings shimmer in the distance, their reflections mingling with the warm hues of sunset and the cool tones of wet pavement.
With expressive strokes of charcoal, amber, and moss green, the artist conjures both movement and stillness—suggesting the hush that falls just after a downpour. The rain becomes a filter, softening the hard outlines of urban life and inviting reflection and calm.
Created entirely in oil pastels, this piece is rich in texture and atmosphere. The smudged luminosity and layered tones evoke a cinematic dreamscape, where every silhouette tells a quiet story.
