David Hockney v Don Schaeffer -
NT73 - Feb 28, 2012
I was watching a program about David Hockney (the artist) who has now got the whole of the Royal Academy of Arts in London for an exhibition.
I was quite interested in how he described things and why he paints in such strange ways.
After clicking the link below - Click on 'about the exhibition' and then 'Click here to view a gallery of images'.

A lot of these paintings are of Yorkshire UK, my county of birth. Hockney was also born in the town where I was born. (Never met him)
They remind me in a loose way of Don's style (Both photo's and paintings).
I don't comment as much as I probably should, but I do view them.

Yeah but he's a real artist and I'm just a nameless amateur.

Not on Shuttertalk or Amazon.
He was nameless when he started. He did a painting of Bradford Town Hall and a few other landmarks and it was used on the Telephone Directory cover. I think mine is gone by the wayside now.

Humble, I like it.
Interesting link, some very nice artwork shown there.
