Shadows sometimes people dont see shadows. The Chinese of course never paint them in pictures, oriental art never deals with shadow. But I noticed these shadows and I knew it meant it was sunny. – David Hockney
Anyway I feel myself a bit on the edge on the art world, but I dont mind, Im just pursuing my work in a very excited way. And there isnt really a mainstream anymore, is there? – David Hockney
I go and see anything thats visually new, any technology thats about picture-making. The technology wont make the pictures different, but someone using it will. – David Hockney
You had to be aware that I saw that photography was a mere episode in the history of the optical projection and when the chemicals ended, meaning the picture was fixed by chemicals, we were in a new era. – David Hockney
If theres no fire, theres no scream. If theres no scream, then no one hears you and no one comes to help you in the first place. The depth of my struggle has definitely determined the height of my success. To be able to teach my kids not just about success but about the struggle that comes with it. – R. Kelly
