David Hockney- High Energy use of Color!




Hockney, a British painter, set designer, photographer and creative powerhouse, is one of the most recognized painters of our time. He was classically trained in painting and drawing - skills that are evident in all of his work. over the years, Hockney has explored many ways to be creative- photography, set design, and recently cell phone videos... challenging himself to adapt that media and technology to meet his creative ideas.
His recent work uses strong colors and patterns.... and are a great place to look for techniques and ideas of how to make dynamic colorful paintings!
