This is an acrylic painting on gallery wrapped 1.5 inch thick canvas, 30 inches tall by 30 inches wide. The last photo on the listing is the color palette of the main colors in this painting in hopes of eliminating color discrepancies on screen.  The sides of the painting come painted orange, so a frame isn’t necessary. 

Meaning: I used to think bravery belonged to other people. That it was loud, effortless, something I just didn’t have. But after some reconsidering, I see it differently. I was brave all along—I just didn’t realize it. Holding my ground, speaking up, standing firm in what I believe—that’s bravery too.

Now is the right time—the only time—to say what I mean and not back down.

This painting is about that. About being unapologetically yourself, even when it’s hard. Even when the world pushes back. Even when staying quiet would be easier. I hope it inspires you to be brave too.

Shipping: Shipping is free in the US. Each painting is carefully packed to ensure its safe arrival. All paintings come ready to hang on your wall unless otherwise noted, signed on the front, dated on the back, and come with a certificate of authenticity for your records.  

About The Artist..

I'm Leah Nadeau, and I make abstract acrylic paintings shaped by three things I can't separate from how I see: a deep love of architecture, a film school education that taught me to see the world differently, and chromethesia, which means I see colors in my brain when I hear music. Each piece is an original, made slowly, one at a time, built to anchor a room and quietly change how it feels to be in it.

Rooted in Mid-Century Modern Design and themes of resilience and joy, my work becomes the focal point around which collectors build entire spaces.

Featured in Atomic Ranch Magazine, exhibited at Modernism Week, and permanently installed at the Henry Ford Health Cancer Institute in Detroit, Michigan.
