This "Blue Tear" piece in the 5.5x8.5 size is the more intimate sibling to my other versions of this image. Painted in acrylic ink on paper, it focuses tightly on a simplified, naive face with one vivid tear slipping down.

The colors are layered but restrained, which lets that single blue mark carry the weight of the whole story. I think of it as all the feelings that finally spill over after you've kept them neatly tucked away. The imperfect lines and softened edges give it that raw outsider‑art honesty.

Because of its small scale, it's perfect for a bedside, a quiet corner, or any spot where you want a reminder that sensitivity isn't a flaw. The original shows a lovely variation in ink density, and print options hold onto that emotional punch while making it easy to add to your collection.
