ACEO Portrait #136 "The Tramp" / Charlot

ACEO #136 is a homage to the biggest inspiration of clowns and comedians, "The Tramp" (Charlot),  Charles Spencer Chaplin  (1889 – 1977).  He was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose to fame in the era of silent film. He became a worldwide icon through his screen persona  "The Tramp" ,  and is considered one of the most important figures in the history of the film industry. His career spanned more than 75 years. His silent black and white movies are timeless classics. I enjoyed a lot watching them while I was painting his portrait on YouTube. I love one of his quote  "A day without smiling is a day wasted."
