"Thanks. I've always steered clear of portraiture - life drawing was hard enough! however, this contour approach could lead to a more abstract interpretation.
I will make an effort to get to the Hockney. Leaving the dog for the day…"

"I didn't realise tickets were going so fast for Hockney.
I liked your contour drawings you showed me last night. You could really see form emerging."

"Thanks - I suspect that the photo makes it look better than in real life! . Hockney will be worth going to see - just hope I can manage an awayday. See you tomorrow."

David Hockney – the Bigger Picture
Now that I have got Da Vinci out of the way, I can talk about the real hot show in London at the moment.
David Hockney's exhibition is at the Royal Academy until April 9th. I would advise booking tickets, especially if you're going at the weekend.
As soon as you step into the main rotunda and see the four paintings of an identical row of trees in four different season, you know you are in for a treat. I looked for a long time at his multi-canvas depiction of the…

Leonardo Da Vinci in the Court of Milan
Leonardo Da Vinci is adored by people who know little about art, and the popularity of this exhibition is evidence to this incongruity.
