My Hockney

I chose to attempt a David Hockney-like portrait of myself through my workspace at home. It was really more difficult than I thought it would be. The transitions between objects on the wall, understanding and warping the space... tricky. I'm not sure I'm really happy with what I've come up with, but it got me thinking more spatially which is good. Feel free to click on the photo for a closer look.

David Hockney Project























For the next project, I am working on a self-portrait in the style of David Hockney. I've decided that instead of a landscape or a direct portrait of myself, I will do a portrait of my workspace, and then place a real photo put together in my empty frame on the wall. If that makes sense.
