Learn More About The Crying Emoji Drawing

In this electronic age, emojis are everywhere, from text messages and emails to clothing, jewelry, school supplies, home furnishings, candies, and more. In 2017, the characters even starred in their first feature film, The Emoji Movie.

What is an emoji? The small cartoons were first introduced by a Japanese cell phone company in 1999, and they generally represent emotions, places, or common objects, such as pets, clothing, and food. The smiley face on which the emoji was based, however, has a much longer history.

The earliest smiley face design in art can be seen on a 4,000 year old clay pot recently unearthed by archaeologists. The classic yellow smiley face emerged in the 1960s, during three unrelated advertising campaigns.

The emoji in this tutorial is not smiling, however. He's displaying one of the most universal signs of unhappiness - he's shedding a tear.

Crying can result from anger, fear, pain, sadness, and sometimes even joy. It is a form of non-verbal communication that allows us to share our feelings with others - just as the crying emoji allows us to share our feelings in a typed message.
