"...a tramp, a gentleman, a poet, a dreamer, a lonely fellow, always hopeful of romance and adventure..." Thus, Charlie Chaplin described his most famous character (and himself), seen here in silhouette for this week's challenge at Three Muses. Charlie is drawn by hand and collaged onto scrapbook paper along with a ransom note quote. Quick, simple, yet meaningful...hope you laugh today!
Your piece is great, love it :)
