Lady Gaga VMA etch a sketch

Description

So lately I have been etchasketching a lot of Lady Gaga. Here's some of them.

Why, might you ask?
Well, I like her music. I can't say I like it all, but I like a good portion of it. I used to like most all of it, but lately I have been convicted about my musical choice, and frankly, some of her messages do not hold well to my Christian ideals.
It doesn't make her any less of an amazing musician and artist, though! I find her music to be inspiring, especially songs like Speechless and my new favorite, Changing skies.
One of my favorite things about Lady Gaga, though, is that she is not afraid to express herself in any way she wants. I may not agree with all of her forms of expression, but it's something I have also aspired to do. She really reaches out for the people that have been ostracized for the very things they were, and I really connect with her.
This is the reference I used for this piece:

I had to restart this once because I am really trying to focus on capturing her likeness. While this piece is nowhere near perfection, I feel as though I got pretty close to capturing her likeness. I might be biased, but I think it looks a lot like her.

I decided -not- to sign this piece, because I didn't want it to throw the focus off of Lady Gaga.
