Are you looking for the artist, or the anime/manga its based on?
Ran in through yandex with no hits. I bet my bottom dollar its Sawako from Kimi Ni Todoke.
See if its this artist bl4cklightwhite on twitter.
I could be wrong about everything, but that's as far as I can go.
I hate tumblr, such a disgusting place. People can't source for shit. Do they even know what they are reposting?
Source is Shinyaku Marchen, chapter 14 "The Princess sleeping".

How did you end up finding the source, anyway?

Once upon a time, a person in that cesspool searching for meaningful existence does it right.

That's a boring answer. Considering half of the anime images without context come from tumblr and end up here or on /r/, it gets annoying. I hate tumblr just as much as you, so I was looking for any insight in sourcing images from that website.

As far as I can tell, most of them don't care.

But that's pretty much how it went. I don't have many useful tips, specially for searching stuff on tumblr. You have to try until you find it. The format of the website is so bad, you often can't even find a link to an archive, but you can force it by putting "archive" at the end of the url and trying to visually process the images so you can find the one you're searching. If you're lucky, you'll find someone with the decency to put the actual source in it.

Not only does it offer links for image search, but in my experience it may offer different search results on google in case your initial google search didn't find any hits.
Just keep practicing and swimming in the ocean of chaos. Eventually you'll get even better at it and before you notice chaos herself will be helping point the things you're searching for.
