This is an acrylic painting on paper 12 x 9 inches. It can come framed in either black or gold. Matted and framed it measures 12 x 16 inches.


Meaning:

"What I Was Made For" is about claiming my own narrative. It’s a statement against the narrow roles society tries to push, especially for women. We’re told to be small, beautiful, and compliant, to serve others before we serve ourselves. But this piece is a rejection of that. It's about discovering and owning the truth that our worth comes from our passions, talents, and dreams—not from how we’re told to look or behave.

It's an unapologetic statement of self-empowerment and fulfillment, a reminder that we get to choose who we are, what we want, and what we were made for.

Shipping: The cost of shipping is included in the price unless you're international.

Each painting is carefully packed to ensure its safe arrival and insured for the valued amount. 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.
