What is David Hockney about?
As a child, David Hockney loved drawing and saw the world in his own special way. He dreamed of becoming an artist, studied at art school and worked hard to develop his skills. After selling his first painting, David soon held a successful exhibition. Moving from Britain to sunny California inspired bright, bold pictures, while the Yorkshire countryside remained close to his heart. Discover how David kept experimenting with colour, technology and enormous landscapes to become one of Britain’s best-known artists.
