Etymology
The word smudgy comes from the word smudge, which means 'to make a dirty or blurred mark', plus the ending -y, which means 'full of'. So something smudgy is 'full of smudges' or smeared and blurred, which is why we call a blurred photo, messy makeup, or a drawing with smeared colours 'smudgy'.
