Changed my ideas of what art was, what you could do on a screen, how you could work and make images... I guess it had some impact in me doing what I do... so RIP David. Also...let's not Photoshop him with Paddington yeah?
the first time I heard of David Hockney was Painting With Light 1987. 'Six painters create pictures that exist only on your television set at home. Howard Hodgkin, Sir Sidney Nolan, Richard Hamilton and tonight, David Hockney, are confronted with the extraordinary Quantel Paintbox.' It changed me.
