More quotes by David Hockney
Every good artist I know, I always think works hard, we're working all the time.
David Hockney
I feel 30. [Publo] Picasso said he always felt 30. Well, I do.
David Hockney
I'm a bit claustrophobic, I know that now.
David Hockney
Water colours are wet colours in water.
David Hockney
I believe that the very process of looking can make a thing beautiful.
David Hockney
An artist might be attracted to hedonism, but of course an artist is not a hedonist. He's a worker, always.
David Hockney
Drawing is rather like playing chess: your mind races ahead of the moves that you eventually make.
David Hockney
The pictures on the walls aren't like movies. They don't move, they don't talk, and they'll last longer. They will last longer.
David Hockney
The editing of moving pictures is geared toward the single image. You'd have to edit things in new ways.
David Hockney
All film directors, even the ones using 3-D today, want you to look at what they chose.
David Hockney
But slowly I began to use cameras and then think about what it was that was going on. It took me a long time, I mean I actually played with cameras and photography for about 20 years.
David Hockney
I think we're in a very exciting time - visually, I think we are. I've not got a crystal ball. I'm not saying I know what the future is at all. In some ways I'm getting quite pessimistic about the future, but in other ways I think it might get better. We are moving into very big changes.
David Hockney
I have always believed that art should be a deep pleasure. I think there is a contradiction in an art of total despair, because the very fact that the art is made seems to contradict despair.
David Hockney
The vanishing point leads to the missiles of today, which can take us out of this world. It could be that the west's greatest mistakes were the 'invention' of the external vanishing point and the internal combustion engine.
David Hockney
Being able to draw means being able to put things in believable space. People who don't draw very well can't do that.
David Hockney
It sometimes takes a foreigner to come and see a place and paint it. I remember someone saying they had never really noticed the palm trees here until I painted them.
David Hockney
I have never really done any teaching and maybe I should have done. I am not power-mad enough.
David Hockney
I mean if you draw you like drawing, it's er, an activity you do all the time actually.
David Hockney
I'm very attracted to the great open spaces of the West.
David Hockney
What I always longed to do was to be able to paint like I can draw, most artists would tell you that, they would all like to paint like they can draw.
David Hockney
