About the Item
Abstract. Philosophical. Colorful.
Tears tell many stories.
Happy tears tell stories of joy and even relief.
Sad tears tell stories of loss and pain.
When you cry, do you know what your tears tell you?
This work expresses the many sides of tears by the colors of blue and red on opposites sides and the red pole the extends up at an angle.
Do the tears penetrate the pole? Or does the angle of the pole correctly separate the reasons for the tears?

Arlette Stella
Arlette Stella is an abstract painter with occasional work that expresses surrealism. She is self-taught, late-blooming and unstoppable. Her work is characterized by bold colors, since she is mainly color-blind and needs bold colors to see the work. Arlette’s philosophical nature is the basis for her work. Every work is the result of a conversation she has had with canvas, paints and colors.
Each work aims to incur, inspire, and maybe even nudge (kick you in the yeah-butt!) the viewer to experience and act on kindness. Arlette states clearly: Kindness is my brand!
Arlette Stella is an artist member of the San Diego Artist Guild of the San Diego Museum and of the Artist Guild of Palm Springs/Palm Desert, among other artist groups.
