David Hockney

David Hockney no doubt is one of my favorite artists of all time. I never get tired of looking at his old and new works. A jolt of inspiration at times needed and other times unexpected rushes through me. While flipping through Hockney's Pictures today his landscapes (from the late 90's) especially caught my attention, and would not let go. The space he creates and his colors (oh his space! his colors!) it's like falling in love for the first time, every time.
