The "Smiley Face" is a simple graphic representation of a face, typically depicted as a yellow circle with two black dots for eyes and a curved line for a mouth. It is often used to convey happiness or positivity in various forms of communication, including text messages and social media. The design is widely recognized and has become a symbol of joy and friendliness. The Smiley Face was created in 1963 by graphic artist Harvey Ball for an insurance company to boost employee morale. Over the years, it has evolved into a cultural icon, appearing on merchandise, in art, and as part of the emoji system used in digital communication.
