Forced Smile

This design presents a chilling visual of a figure wearing a white ski mask, the word 'SMILE' scrawled across the forehead in jagged, unsettling letters. The eyes are shadowed and menacing, while the mouth is stretched into a grotesque smile, seemingly forced by blood-stained fingers. The overall aesthetic leans heavily into horror, with a gritty, textured style that enhances the disturbing nature of the subject. The color palette is dominated by dark tones, punctuated by stark whites and vivid reds, creating a sense of unease and dread. The design evokes elements of both urban grit and classic horror tropes, making it a striking and memorable piece.

Designers could use this image for horror-themed apparel, album art for dark electronic music, or edgy promotional material for escape rooms or haunted attractions. The unsettling nature of the design makes it ideal for attracting attention and creating a memorable impact, particularly within subcultures that appreciate darker aesthetics.
