All work above by David Hockney

David Hockney is an English artist that has created a wide array of art in his lifetime. In 2011 he was voted the most influential British artist of all time.

What I love the most about his work is the way he braids together simplicity and intricacy.

You can check out more of his work on his site here.

For this exercise I wanted to take the style of David Hockney and create drawings of my own.

I worked in graphite pencil, colored pencil, and inktense water soluble pencils.

I also used Jolly X-BIG Pencils, which are really nice colored pencils for the price. I worked on regular drawing paper - 11" x 14".

I'm always excited by the unlikely, never by ordinary things. - David Hockney

Here are two pieces I did for this lesson, unfortunately they didn't make it to vimeo due to my hard drive failing.
