Inspiration for Collection II

Gustav Klimt has been a favorite artist of mine for quite awhile. He uses rich colors and creates patterns with a mosaic style. He designed his women to be somewhat erotic but in a tasteful and luxurious way. Klimt's use of Byzantine imagery and the gold leaf he incorporated I find to also be inspiring.

 As a girl who loves color, pattern, art, and culture, I naturally found Klimt to be a main inspiration for my second senior collection. I have also found the Byzantine era to be fascinating so for this collection I am pulling inspiration from that time as well.

 Posted below are some modern images inspired by Klimt's artwork that I particularly liked.
