Medieval Manuscript Lady Gaga

Description

Studied Romanesque art for an art class, and really liked the manuscripts because they're so weird. Heavily stylized folds, funky proportions, funky everything. For an example of a real one, see this picture.

Anyway, I wanted to do a current person, and chose Lady Gaga because she's the epitome of weird. I was, at first, going to do a different outfit, one with lots of fabric so I could do those weird folds. Then I saw this.

See, saints were often depicted as having halos, round(ish) circles stuck behind their heads. When I saw Gaga's hair ornament in that picture, it immediately reminded me of halos.

BTW: the hand gesture in this type of art means that she's speaking. Or singing, as the case may be.

So, in short: old, funky art style yes it looks weird on purpose, and Kayt has a weird sense of humor.
