Inspiration:

 Every time I visit home, I see pieces of my childhood come alive again—Barbie dolls, colorful toys, and the little treasures I once adored, now scattered across my mom’s house for my nieces to play with. Seeing them brings back this rush of memories, almost like flipping through an old photo album in my mind.

When I think of those days, I remember the simple joys: afternoons spent at the mall, the thrill of horseback riding, and endless hours creating little worlds with my Barbies. Everything felt brighter, bigger, and filled with possibility. It was a time where colors seemed more vibrant, and happiness came so easily.

But nostalgia can be a funny thing. It’s comforting, like slipping into an old sweater, but there’s always this ache—a soft reminder that those moments are gone. That’s what this painting captures: the joy, the vibrancy, and the longing that makes nostalgia so beautifully complicated.

Framing details: Framed in either black metal, or unframed.

Shipping: 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 comes 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.
