The Monster of the Blonde Icon

This artwork is a tribute to Lady Gaga and Marilyn Monroe. I decided to make an illustration about "Applause" music video, and I chose the Marilyn inspired scene, where Gaga is in a cage and wears a yellow wig. "The Fame Monster" vibes are on purpose, that album inspired me a lot during the creation of the artwork.

"They'll never take our blonde hair and lipstick"

I used pencil for the drawing and Photoshop for painting. 
Thanks for watching!

*I wanted to dedicate this piece to my bf David. He's always an inspiration and I know he loves Marilyn so much (and poppies too)
