The Three Muses Challenge - The World of Movies

I couldn't go past Charlie Chaplin whose genius helped open a world of movies to generations of fans.  The quote is by Charlie Chaplin, the image was Googled, coloured and altered, the background and old film strip is by Irene Alexeeva and the ticket, film reel and camera are by Kubivet (freebies).

    Grungy and great, Marie. Charlie just lends himself well to grunginess, doesn't he? You do it so well!

    Don't want to go to bed before to tell you again how much I like your "Chaplinesque" illustration of the theme. A great piece of art.

    Great minds and all that Marie and yet such different approaches. I love what you have done, and the gorgeous grunge and sepia takes us back to the age of Charlie. Well done my friend and a great big standing ovation from my corner.

    What a great piece. Shall I let you into a little secret... I am actually related to the great man! Pretty distantly I admit, but he's right there on the family tree!
