Modeled Bodies Watercolor painting by Mariko Irie<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I love this lithograph very much. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s by David Hockney. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hard to believe it, because it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s so different from his other works.<\/p>\n<p>Probably the lady, who is looking at his lithograph, got a shock like I did.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I just finished \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Conversations with Picasso\u00e2\u20ac\u009d by his photographer Brassai in Japanese. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a great book.<\/p>\n<p>I always respect Picasso since I saw his drawing of a foot. When he was fourteen years old, he drew that. He mastered traditional drawing already. And then he copied masters\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 paintings. After that he started his own. He lived in art and \u00c2\u00a0the art movement.<\/p>\n<p>Brassai explained Picasso\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s nature \u00e2\u20ac\u0153 He has a nature royal to happy events, so he is remained in only memories of happy days.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not sure I translate right. I red the book in Japanese. Now I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m writing in English. I hope that you feel it.<\/p>\n<p>And he believed \u00e2\u20ac\u0153 Achieving to Abstract, you should start from concrete reality.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>Then Picasso said \u00e2\u20ac\u0153 Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an Artist.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now back to David Hockney, he has lived in Art movement as well. He was born in 1937, so he is 76 years old. He is still painting biiiiiiig paintings plein air, size like 15\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 x 40\u00e2\u20ac\u2122.<\/p>\n<p>I love to have that energy, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t you?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By the way, the lady, who is looking at David Hockney\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Lithograph, wears jacket and boots. It was early August. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s San Francisco outfit in summer.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for reading my blog.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are other shows at De Young Museum.
