The song this piece is based off of in Joanne by Lady Gaga. Joanne was her dad's sister, her aunt, who died early due to lupus. Gaga described her as always being the good girl, and Gaga felt like she always needed to be that good girl for the men in her life like her dad and her husband. When Joanne died, Gaga's dad took to the bottle, and drank very heavily. Throughout this experience, Gaga learned to grow as a woman, and became the woman the men in her life could depend on, and that she didn't have to be that perfect little girl. For my piece I demonstrated her growth as a woman into plants growing, and at each new piece of the plant growing, I put imagery that symbolized that point in her growth like for the final growth, I put imagery of her renewed better relationship with dad and the tattoos they got the symbolized their growth, she got Joanne tattooed and he got hope tattooed. In the top in glitter I put the lyric "can't wait to see you soar" which represents Joanne's legacy that she left and Gaga's growth throughout the whole experience. I am not finished with the piece yet, but some things I like so far is how the colors fit well within the piece. One thing I don't like is that the lyrics didn't come out as clear as I wanted to in glitter.
