David Hockney

David Hockney is one of my all time favourite artists. I have always found myself relating to the playful execution he suggests throughout his work, if it happens to be a polaroid collage or swimming pool portrait the suggestion is there. He reminds me about satisfaction gained from deep, reflective observation. Which its safe to say benefits our work and mind.

I have read/watched some really interesting (to me) resources on him lately, which gave me food for thought, with a light positive air. So I thought I'd share & draw.

David Hockney: portrait of the old master

"Over the summer, David Hockney has been lying in his bed in Bridlington, East Yorkshire's answer to Malibu, and trying to capture the sun rising over the bay on his iPhone... Talking to Hockney, you are struck by a kind of heroic optimism"
