More quotes by David Hockney
As you get older, it gets a bit harder to keep the spontaneity in you, but I work at it.
David Hockney
I think Picasso was, without doubt, the greatest portraitist of the 20th century, if not any other century.
David Hockney
The only people who need degrees are dentists and brain surgeons.
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
When you are older, you realise that everything else is just nothing compared to painting and drawing.
David Hockney
All art is contemporary, if it's alive, and if it's not alive, what's the point of it?
David Hockney
I mean if you draw you like drawing, it's er, an activity you do all the time actually.
David Hockney
No theoretician, no writer on art, however interesting he or she might be, could be as interesting as Picasso. A good writer on art may give you an insight to Picasso, but, after all, Picasso was there first.
David Hockney
I'm sure that the camera is part of European art.
David Hockney
I have never really done any teaching and maybe I should have done. I am not power-mad enough.
David Hockney
The editing of moving pictures is geared toward the single image. You'd have to edit things in new ways.
David Hockney
What I didn't know was I was deeply attracted to the big space.
David Hockney
But the moment you use an ordinary camera, you are not seeing the picture, remember, meaning, you had to remember what you've taken. Now you could see it of course, with a digital thing, but remember in 1982 you couldn't.
David Hockney
I think I’m greedy, but I’m not greedy for money - I think that can be a burden - I’m greedy for an exciting life.
David Hockney
I was aware that the teaching of drawing was being stopped almost 30 years ago. And I always said, 'The teaching of drawing is the teaching of looking.' A lot of people don't look very hard.
David Hockney
There would be no bohemia without smoking.
David Hockney
You must plan to be spontaneous.
David Hockney
Enjoyment of the landscape is a thrill.
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
I'm interested in all kinds of pictures, however they are made, with cameras, with paint brushes, with computers, with anything.
David Hockney
