A grieving artist and his struggle to find worth within his work.
Painted Tears is a short that focuses on a painter, lost in his grief. I wrote and directed _Painted Tears_ not to focus on the negative aspect of grief, but to show how ones craft can help overcome both challenges like the loss of life, but also everyday struggles. "Art _can_ mean something, but only if you're willing to commit". For me, Painted Tears is a stepping stone. Something that I have already learnt from and, I hope, to continue to adapt from. I hope you enjoy.
