David Hockney uses Wacom Tablets & Photoshop
June 23, 2009
British artist David Hochkney (72 ! ) now works with a Wacom Graphic Tablet and Adobe Photoshop. I saw that on TV and found that pretty astonishing, that somebody who has painted for decades with a similiar technique finally decides to try something completely new and do it the digital way. The final “computer drawings” as he calls them are sold as Inkjet prints.
See a Times article here or his gallery where he’s having a show right now here.
These 2 pieces where made with tablet and Photoshop:

Hi Daniel, Hockney never stops being visually amazing. He works with mirrors, magnifying glasses, all kinds of photo equipment and writes about visual awareness in art history as well. Is there more info somewhere about this painting/photoshop workflow phase? Thank you, Cindy
