David Hockney was born in Bradford, 1937. Hockney, has been a long standing contributor to British art for many decades, so much so that he has been hailed one of the most influential British artist of the 20th Century. 

Identifying with elements of expressionism and pop-art. Through these key artistic movements, Hockney has established an instantly recognisable and world-renowned aesthetic. 

I find the work of Hockney to be very interesting, as he remixes fine artistry with a sense of abstract expressionism. Somehow, collaborating these elements together works in such harmony. David is very relevant to me, as he employs old craftsmanship with sharp ripples of contemporary expression.
