Description

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 create original abstract paintings for people who want their homes to feel unmistakably like their own.

My work is shaped by architecture, midcentury modern design, my film school background, and synesthesia, which means I experience music as color. Every painting is made slowly, by hand, and one at a time.

Filled with color, joy, resilience, and a little weirdness, these paintings aren’t meant to disappear into the background. They become the piece you build the entire room around.

My work has been featured in Atomic Ranch Magazine, exhibited at Modernism Week in Palm Springs, and permanently installed at the Henry Ford Health Cancer Institute in Detroit.
