He eventually went on to create more complex images with irregular edges using 35 mm photographs, such as this portrait of his mother. In 1982, Hockney began creating collages with Polaroid prints, which he worked into grids. Supportive of her son David’s desire to be an artist, she remained a loyal and patient model who would always sit still for him.Īlthough Hockney is critical of photography- “A photograph cannot really have layers of time in it the way a painting can, which is why drawn and painted portraits are much more interesting,” he once said-the large portrait that dominates this section was made from photographs. A devout Methodist and strict vegetarian, Laura Hockney (1900−1999) raised her four children with great generosity of spirit. The large number of portraits Hockney made of his mother attests to the close bond between them.
