Radiance, Original
36x36 in (91x91 cm): Radiance (noun): a glowing kind of joy or beauty that comes from inside, not from outside.
Clara was born with a stroke that took away her ability to speak, read, and write. People who only know that part of her story might think her life is small, or hard, or limited. But anyone who has spent five minutes in a room with Clara knows the truth. She glows.
Look at this painting. Deep blue, like water that goes further down than you can see, and right in the middle of all that depth, bright white strokes, like light catching the surface and breaking through. That is Clara. The hard parts run deep. But the light always finds a way up.
Radiance is not about looking perfect on the outside. It is about carrying something bright on the inside, even when life gave you every reason not to. Clara carries it every day, and it shows in every piece she paints.
Hang Radiance in your home and let it remind you — your light does not need permission to shine. It is already in you. You just have to let it rise to the surface.

I want everyone in the world to have one of my artworks because...
SPOTTED IN
Hi, I’m Clara.
Sometimes people tell me I shouldn’t dream so big. That because I can’t speak, read, or write, I should “stay quiet.” But I don’t want to stay quiet. I want to paint louder.
I had a stroke while I was still in my mom’s womb. The doctors told her my life would be a nightmare. But here I am — building my future.
Even though I can’t speak, read, or write, I understand three languages — English, Portuguese, and Italian. I guess my brain found its own way to communicate, just not the one doctors expected.
I’m writing this with the help of my mom (my business partner, my best friend, and my biggest cheerleader) and ChatGPT — and reading it with my text-to-speech app.
Painting became my language. It’s how I share everything I can’t say with words — my love, my anger, my hope, and my joy. Because even if my voice sounds different, I want you to hear me.
