David Hockney

He has always been one of my favourite artists, he has mainly done landscape paintings, but i also admire his photocollages, the way he deconstructs reality and builds it again, showing a particular way of seeing life.

He influences my practice in a way that i don´t really know how to express, i just have his work constantly in the back of my mind, his colors, his vision of life, the way he plays with perspective...

His drawings are huge and that is one of the things of them that help you really feel the enviroment he´s creating, it feels like you are inside the landscape, like you are a part of it.

He painted in different canvases and then put them all together, kind of using again his collage technique and he usually painted outside, what i really admire because he wanted to feel the place, breathe the same air that he was trying to paint.
