There are no hard and fast rules as far as I am concerned - if you like them you like them - I actually like most of them myself, but I would prefer to have someone like Ben Hartley hanging on my wall - even if I did have walls big enough to hang a Hockney!<br /><br />The only rules that apply here are the scientific ones to do with what happens in your brain when you place two colours side by side, and the way they change through juxtaposition - colour theory is a science, but it doesn't always have to be applied to art. If it works, it works for you.Tom Stephensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05979590950587415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-10417893822391658452012-03-01T18:07:14.546-08:002012-03-01T18:07:14.546-08:00I do not call myself an artist, but I love to pain...I do not call myself an artist, but I love to paint and I love color. I wish I could have a face to face discussion with you about what I like about David Hockney's Yorkshire paintings. I lived many years in Yorkshire and loved it; love the people; know and very much like a couple of Hockney's relatives; went to school in Bridlington. So am I just biased? I'm asking this as a serious question. I think I see in his paintings some quality that tells me immediately it is of Yorkshire and so I love it. How has he captured this? He says he likes the light in Yorkshire. Am I imagining this just because I have so many attachments there? I'd like to think I'm being a little more objective than that but I have no technical knowledge on which to base my preferences.ChrisJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11550420299395301062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2505385214324438018.post-46924805678824881692012-03-01T16:01:28.402-08:002012-03-01T16:01:28.402-08:00I would permanently delete this accident, but that...I would permanently delete this accident, but that would only decrease my comment count.
