art that inspires

#DavidHockney photographed with his beloved dogs Stanley and Boodgie; behind them a series of paintings and studies depicting the two dogs. Hockney was inspired to buy a dachshund puppy after falling in love with his neighbours’ dogs. Stanley came first and Boodgie arrived two years later. Their bed-cushions were in Hockney’s studio, and they were allowed to sleep in his bed too. Hockney’s portraits of the dogs stemmed from an extensive study of the two. The series was three months in the making and required meticulous planning. Hockney set up easels around his home in order to capture them quickly in various natural poses, and he told the Telegraph that ‘only the owner could have painted that’, due to his affection for them. In 1995 Hockney staged an exhibition of work that had been prompted by his dogs. #art #interiorart #painting #drawing #modernart #artiststudio #collector #collection #interiordecor #interior #interiorlovers #artlovers #artist #contemporaryart #artanimalier #dog #dachshunddog #artistatelier #artist
