Colorful Charlie or Charlie Meets Andy
Charlie Chaplin was the theme for The Three Muses challenge this week. I am often saddened by his face, so expressive, so unhappy seeming, so that is why I chose to add color in the stylized way of Andy Warhol.
I chose a quintessential Charlie pose, removed the background, and started adding color with the paint bucket. Then I detailed his clothes and his hat, added in a background color and picture #1 was done. Each picture after that was a progressive color alteration of the original.
There you go, I hope that he is happier in my Crayola Crayon box of 64 style!
Thank you again ladies for a creative and fun challenge.

Holy Cow!!!! This is outstanding work! The Warhol look totally suits the Chaplin figure to a “T”! Brilliant! Hugs, Terri
Brilliant work- I really love the color variations- very pop art and excellent for the Chaplin figure!
Well I stared at this for a long time and then I remembered to pick my jaw off my shoe tops. This totally blows me away ……. and that’s all I can say …….. I’m speechless with awe.
