David Hockney
Enjoyment of the landscape is a thrill.
David Hockney

David Hockney
I feel 30. [Publo] Picasso said he always felt 30. Well, I do.
David Hockney
I'm not going to stop painting just to take orders.
David Hockney
Painting and drawing has been here for 35,000 years.
David Hockney
The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist.
