* Artist-framed * Hesitantly Sad

£290.00

A hesitantly sad expression carries the weight of sorrow, but it never quite settles into certainty. It is the look of someone who feels the ache of sadness yet pauses before allowing it to fully take hold, as though they are testing the edges of their own grief. The hesitation is visible in the restraint of the features—an almost-smile that doesn’t arrive, or eyes that glisten but hold back tears. It is sadness tempered by uncertainty, a feeling that hovers rather than lands.
