David Hockney is an English painter, draughtsman, printmaker, stage designer and photographer. He contributes to Pop Art and is very influential to other artists. 

Illustrations I like:
This illustration is a self portrait in the 1950's. I really like this technique he has used but I chose
this image because I wanted to show the comparison between his work in the 50's through to
the 00's.
This illustration was done a decade after the first image and I think you can see a clear
change in the way he sketches. I really like the simplicity of these images because he makes it work
really well.
I really like this drawing because it is similar to what I have been working on lately and I just think
it gives me a lot of inspiration. David also paints and photographs but his drawings are my favourite
type of work he does.
This last illustration was created in the 00's and I think you can definitely see a change in drawings from the
50's until now. He has developed a lot as in he has added more detail, colour and realism to his drawings
and I think it works really well.
