Description
I thought about this for quite some time and I have no idea if it has been done before. I wanted to do something very simplistic which got across a bigger message about how what you see on the surface may not be how someone is really feeling. Comments and criticisms welcome!Related content

This is a very simple picture.
It means a lot, it's a wonderful piece of abstract. It really got me thinking.
It's not too original. As I've seen pictures almost just like this, you did add a twist, writing in the description what it meant to you. I've seen pretty much the same picture on a shirt that says "I'm Bipolar" or other things. It's not an original picture, however, it is a pretty original way of thinking about the picture.
The background is attractive and well done, yet simple so as to attract the eye to the important part of the picture. The picture its self is simply drawn, anybody could draw it. The colors are appealing to the eye, however. It caught my attention to the picture, and made me click on it to view it.
I hope this critique was helpful.

Very very helpful, thank you I'd say all your comments are very fair. I'm really interested to see this t-shirt design though now.
*Back from Google*
Yep, this has indeed been done before like I assumed XDĀ i.imgur.com/lkj27mg.jpg
I'm glad you like the background as well, I could had made it much more detailed but I'm very fond of the simple/minimalist approach which catches peoples eyes. I'm really glad I accomplished this, at least in your opinion
Thanks again.

Thank you I actually asked a bunch of my friends what they would define as sad/happy colours. Most of them said dark blue/black for sad and a very light colour like green/yellow for happy. In the end I settled with Yellow/Blue as those were my original choices as well.

Ah. I like how you used dark blue, instead of a cobalt. I see people use cobalt, but to me that doesn't seem sad, it seems energy-filled.

Awesome! Simple but very effective. I really like the idea, no matter if it has been made before by someone else. The colours that you chosen and the clean background really help to focus on the message you wanted to broadcast.

Thank you I'd like to think so, it's very simplistic but I always try and go for that whenever making anything
