31 Day Challenge: Day 23 - Psycho

Nothing to Disclose

Hello everyone! My next prompt in the 31 Day Challenge is "inspired by a movie" and I chose one of my favorites to take inspiration from! I love old movies, one of my favorite genres is the old thriller/mystery movies. When I was around 10 or 12, I discovered Alfred Hitchcock and made it my mission to see all of his movies so I spent a lot of time at video stores hunting down all the VHS tapes! (Yes, I'm that old.) I love everything he's done and his movies are among my favorites that I can watch over and over again. One of them is the classic, Psycho. 

31 Day Challenge Day 23 - Inspired By A Movie

When I as trying to think of which movie I should use as my inspiration I had several in mind. I love Alfred Hitchcock, I became obsessed with his movies when I was around 12 years old and went crazy watching every single movie he ever made. The very first one I saw was Psycho and it is still one of my favorites. Some of my other Alfred Hitchcock favorites are Charade, Suspicion, Vertigo, Rear Window, The Birds, The Man Who Knew Too Much,  I could go on... LOL

But, back to Psycho. I'm sure you all know what it's about - if you don't, where have you been? LOL Most people remember the shower scene (and accompanying music) which can be heard in the video below. (This is just an image and music, not the actual scene from the movie.)

And now for the mani. I did a black and white background (I sponged black, white and grey over a grey background) and added some "blood drips" at the top using a striping brush. I am very pleased with how this turned out.
