He was making these drawings having late suffered a tyke stroke. The start drawing inwards Nov 2012 took 2 days but later that he says he institute he concentrated to a greater extent than - in addition to for the side past times side 6 months he did zip but depict inwards charcoal.

To me they're to a greater extent than sophisticated than the ones I saw at the RA - in addition to I was real impressed past times those!(see Review: David Hockney RA - H5N1 Bigger Picture - Making a Mark in addition to Hockney is bigger than Van Gogh! - I visited the exhibition 4 times!)

One knockout aspect for me was the charcoal drawings - which were exactly stunning. I never ever tired of looking at these - but entirely appreciated the relevance of him drawing trees in addition to forest inwards charcoal on my final visit.

Gregory who runs the concern terminate of Hockney dorsum inwards Los Angeles said he felt that the drawings were dissimilar from the ones before.  To my mind, i real obvious argue they hold off dissimilar is because they're a considered serial of v drawings of a house he at nowadays knows real good indeed.  Walking into the tertiary flooring space, i is directly made aware of the touching of charcoal drawings when done every bit a serial of drawings of the same infinite over a menstruum of time. The drawings also remind you lot real much of the subtlety that charcoal has inwards the hands of somebody who knows how to purpose it.

I personally institute that they kept reminding me of Van Gogh's reed pen drawings of the countryside in addition to trees inwards Provence.  Hockney uses the same diversity of inwards notations in addition to mark-making used for trees in addition to leaves in addition to grass which felt real familiar in addition to comfortable. (I'm a huge fan of Van Gogh's drawings - if you'd similar to uncovering out to a greater extent than almost his drawings you lot tin download the catalogue of the exhibition of Van Gogh's drawings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on their publications website - for free)

I definitely recommend this exhibition to anybody who is a fan of Hockney, a fan of landscape drawings, a fan of digital fine art or charcoal drawings - in addition to if you're all of these, every bit I am now, you'll receive got a genuinely wonderful experience!

Plus the video of Woldgate continues to mesmerise - exactly every bit it did at the RA!
