First of all I really like this one, my first impression was like this:
Wow, this is some kinda dream world with the feeling of a slight melancholy.

But why is this painting so impressive?

Well, first of all the colours: you´ve basically only used blue and yellow, here less is more and you´ve really made use of that, it´s not overloaded and "seems" to be simple. (like a dream)
Second: Whereas the tree itself, the branches, aren´t blurry the rest is, which is a good contrast, if everything had been blurry without focus we wouldn´t really have anything "special", just on "soup" of colours. This way we have the amazingly detailed tree with branches so thin and breakable.. and if we look closer some small leaves at the end of them, .
Those are surrounded by a diffuse blue without a clear frontier.. we can´t tell where the tree ends and the backround starts.
The backround itself is sort of just a faint feeling, some hints are given.. the yellow might be the sun, but doesn´t have to, that´s left to our imagination.
The title: after cry really fits, because after crying our vision is blurry, be can´t see things too clearly, and might not want to do so..
Most of the tears and sadness is gone in this pic, but there are still some left.. most of the branches are hanging down, pointing towards the ground.. but others are already up and the sun is already clearing the sky, after this "shower" that occured recently.

So what could you´ve done better? To be honest, it´s hard for me to tell that. I´m only an amateur, I can´t really tell.
So please forgive me for being unable to find any flaws.

yes I did, I was planning on referring to that a while longer but then I decided to leave that part out, as you´ve written italready there.
I really like the concept and backround, you should add any details in my opinion. leave it as it is

This is a really nice piece, technically its good a strong use of colour for a watercolour image it seems its very easy to become wishy washey with that medium. It has a meaning which gives the painting another dimension from which to enjoy it. Nice work [:

I love the contrasting blues and purples against the yellow of the sun. It looks so still and calm, with these blue tones it makes it look like it has just rained and the sun is peaking through the clouds. I think you have done a great job on this painting, my only critique is that I think the yellow on the right branch close to the trunk went too far around the branch for the light to be coming from the back. Other then that you have hit it spot on! Keep up the great work.

I really do like this a lot. And the texture is fantastic. You may not remember what you did but you probably will figure it out again. The concept works really well with the work you did, and the colors fit, especially how you chose the two main colors of each thing (like sadness =blue, sunshine =yellow sort of thing... -sucks at explaining-). Anyway, I don't think the background needs any more detail than it has because of the concept. Like after one cries their vision is a bit blurred and you can only make out so much. Keep up the fantastic work.

I like this. The limited color scheme works well for it, and the hints of green help. I disagree that the tree is too short. It appears to be an oak, and depending on climate, soil, and species some of them grow quite squat and broad like this.

Your use of wet into wet is intriguing and well controlled, the leaf textures are beautifully hinted, and overall the effect is just beautiful.

Now. Am I the only one who sees a canine face peering through the branches? Both eyes near the top of the image, one is dark blue, the other on the edge between blue and yellow. The nose is on the bottom edge of the darker blue patch of leaves, below and between the eyes. And just below that I see the tip of the lower jaw, complete with lip, incisors and one canine tooth.

If this was intentional, it's very subtly done. If it was unintentional, it's an amazing coincidence. Having once seen it, I can't not see it there.

This is a very nice piece. In terms of suggestions/feedback, I would point you to a few questions (I hope I am not repeating any earlier posts, as I got this piece a bit late so it seems):

What are you trying to achieve with the background? (1). Are you trying to contrast it with the tree, and thus make the tree deliberately "stand out" and "stand apart" from the rest of the painting? For this, you may consider adding a thin outline to the tree, but I am not sure whether a dark blue or a 'lighting effect' would be preferable.

(2). Or are you attempting to blend the tree in with the background, so that the former (the tree) becomes a part of the latter (the background) and that the former inadvertently stands out? For this you may consider adding an effect where the tree has a reflection below (possibly suggesting that the tree is bordering a misty river bank or a foggy swampland.

All in all, it is a nice piece, and it seems like you put a lot of thought and work into it.
