Liberated Tears
Grief at the point it becomes freedom
There’s a moment when tears stop feeling like weakness and start feeling like release. Holding it in gets heavier than letting it out. This face is unburdened.

MEET COREY WESLEYFaces tell a story before we even say a word. This is my creative expression of the human face and the emotions we all experience.
