The child, set against a vibrant blue water background, wears a green inflatable ring and is depicted crying with intense, almost cartoonish agony, with tears flying outward. The artist's use of bold colors and the exaggerated, oversized head emphasize the raw, primal nature of the child’s emotions, creating a sense of humor intertwined with a feeling of vulnerability. This 2012 piece, measuring 120 cm by 100 cm, explores themes of innocence, frustration, and the intensity of childhood emotions, presenting a moment both relatable and amusing.

What is Comic Strip Art?
Comic strip art refers to artwork that utilizes the subject matter and commercial printing techniques found in comic strips. In the 1960s, a group of artists began creating paintings that incorporated Ben-Day dots—commonly used in comics and advertising—to produce highly graphic designs in bright colors, using traditional art media.
