Reaching Higher by Maarten Léon shows a small figure standing between two large, dark shapes, reaching upward. The shapes feel solid and heavy, while the figure looks small but steady. At a glance, it is simple. The more you look, the more it feels like a moment of effort. Trying. Stretching. Not giving up.

This is officially licensed artwork by Maarten Léon. His work often focuses on quiet human moments and the feelings that sit underneath them, like pressure, ambition, and persistence. Instead of adding detail, he removes it. That makes the message easier to read. In this piece, the scale does the talking. The figure may be small, but the movement is clear. This is about reaching for something even when it feels just out of reach.

It feels honest without being loud or motivational in an obvious way. It captures a feeling many of us recognize. The effort to grow, to move forward, to try again. If you are drawn to clean, minimalist art that still carries meaning, this piece fits naturally into that space.

Available as a premium fine art print, with the option to add a real wood frame crafted by our artisan framers. Each piece is produced with care, and framed orders arrive ready to hang.

Please note, this print includes a white border and intentional grains as part of the design.

Jen at Sugar&Canvas went the whole 9 yards to help me put a border on this print. When I saw this design, I had to have. It matches my guest room bedding! How awesome! Great quality paper and vibrant, exacting colors. Love it! Thank you Jen

After hiring 2 artists to make an art piece for my daughters nursery and they both came back nothing like what I wanted, I had to order a pre-made and I'm happy I did. It may not the be original that I wanted but it's gorgeous!

It’s the first time I buy art print online, things that concerns me while searching online for the right art were the quality of the paper, the color brightness, size and all that. This one turns out great, without touching the surface and looking from not far distance, my partner actually thought it’s paint by hand. Love it!

We LOVE these prints. I am always so hesitant to purchase prints online. I originally purchased just one of these prints but I was blown away by the quality and I just loved the art that I ordered a second one.
