About the Item
We offer complimentary worldwide shipping and cover all tariffs and import taxes for this artwork. This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. "Abbot Kinney" captures the lively energy of a bustling street scene with an air of nostalgia, reflecting the timeless appeal of Venice, California. The artist, Nathan Neven, brings contemporary realism to life through his vivid use of oil on canvas. The architecture of the buildings, paired with the clear blue sky above, creates a striking contrast, drawing the viewer into the heart of the scene.
In this cityscape, Neven masterfully uses his signature vibrant color palette to evoke a sense of warmth and energy. The bright hues of red and green in the buildings stand out against the backdrop of soft, sunlit tones, while the deep shadows offer a dynamic contrast, bringing depth to the painting. The palm trees, swaying in the California breeze, are painted with gentle brushstrokes that capture their iconic elegance, creating a balanced harmony between the natural and urban elements of the composition.
Neven's attention to detail and atmospheric lighting transports the viewer to the scene, allowing them to almost hear the distant hum of the city and feel the California sun on their skin. The contemporary realism style, paired with the expressive use of color and light, results in a striking and evocative portrayal of the urban landscape.

Nathan Neven
Humpback whales flying over the streets of New York City and a house packed with pink flamingos are the types of fantastical imagery one can find in the paintings by Irish artist Nathan Neven. Inspired by the isolation brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, his recent work blends art styles and ecosystems to create lighthearted juxtapositions full of joy and teeming with life.
Neven knew at a young age that he wanted to become an artist. He spent much of his youth in Ireland, drawing and painting what he observed. Over time, and largely self-taught, he developed a mix of realist and abstract styles. He later moved to Paris in pursuit of improving his drawing and painting skills in a formal setting. He also spent time traveling in Europe, which greatly influenced his depictions of interiors and cityscapes, which feel alive with color and detail even without the wildlife settling in.
Neven has had multiple solo shows in Japan as well as group shows in the United Kingdom, France and Ireland. Neven exhibited his work in France at the Galerie De La Vague à l’Art in La Baule in 2017 and the Galerie Cantele in Honfleur in 2018. The Montenotte Hotel in Cork, Ireland, invited Neven to be its 2022-23 Artist-in-Residence, which, associated with the Gallery Kinsale, resulted in Neven’s “Wild Life Invited” exhibition of animal portraits.
