Image
Time is the great mystery anyway. And it's still the great mystery in the moving picture as well.
David Hockney
Image
The moment you can learn to deal with homosexuality in art, it's quite an exciting moment, just as in a sense when people 'come out' it's quite an exciting moment. It means they become aware of their desires, and can deal with them in a remarkably honest way.
David Hockney
Image
Once you start painting, you could of course get lost. I mean you get out of yourself, you don't know whether you're thinking, you just act actually sometimes.
David Hockney
Image
I feel 30. [Publo] Picasso said he always felt 30. Well, I do.
David Hockney
Image
A lot of people, given the chance, would blow up everything, and you and me.
David Hockney
Image
The way we see things is constantly changing. At the moment the way we see things has been left a lot to the camera. That shouldn't necessarily be.

I think Picasso was, without doubt, the greatest portraitist of the 20th century, if not any other century.

California is always in my mind.

I've finally figured out what's wrong with photography. It's a one-eyed man looking through a little 'ole. Now, how much reality can there be in that?
David Hockney
Image
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.

All film directors, even the ones using 3-D today, want you to look at what they chose.
David Hockney
Image
I'm really only interested in technology that is about pictures. I'm interested in anything that makes a picture.
David Hockney
Image
I'm interested in all kinds of pictures, however they are made, with cameras, with paint brushes, with computers, with anything.
David Hockney
Image
With watercolour, you can't cover up the marks. There's the story of the construction of the picture, and then the picture might tell another story as well.
David Hockney
Image
It's difficult to talk about colour, even remember colour actually.
David Hockney
Image
Always live in the ugliest house on the street - then you don't have to look at it.

I was 18 when I first visited London, I'm very provincial like that, but I must confess the moment I got to America I thought: This is the place. It was more open, with 24-hour cities and pubs and restaurants that didn't close.

Image
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
Image
It is difficult to say why I decided I wanted to be an artist. Obviously, I had some facility, more than other people, but sometimes facility comes because one is more interested in looking at things, examining them, more interested in the visual world than other people are.

What I didn't know was I was deeply attracted to the big space.
