Surreal Emoji Illustration Holding Smiling Mask Hiding Sad Face with Teardrop in Dramatic Lighting.

A surreal, emotional digital artwork depicting a realistic yellow emoji face holding a glossy smiling mask in front of its own teary, sad expression. This expressive concept symbolizes the emotional duality of hiding pain behind fake happiness. The anatomically correct hand gently grips the mask, while soft dramatic lighting enhances the contrast. Featuring no real human resemblance, clean details, and a dark gradient background, this original illustration powerfully conveys vulnerability, mental health awareness, and emotional depth.
