Clown.

He is the best living British artist and his current landscape phase is a beacon of skill, craftmanship and art being the perfect tonic to the utter vacuous shite of the conceptual art world.

The man is a national treasure.

His style befits his personality, although he is in a moldy fig stage these days, which does reflect quite aptly his positive view on tobacco smoking.

I gather from the above post, that this Hockney chap takes himself much too seriously, and dresses himself ironically in the most unflattering way possible while presenting a distinct artistic vision. Clowns also present an artistic vision. Beyond the hurbis of the artiste, he still looks like a clown.

Very sadly Formby, looks like you, Chevere, Grandfather's Pants and myself are the only ones who can recognise genius and art on this thread.

Thats Patrick isn't it?

Cigarette smokers have rights.  The right to be outside in the rain as I don't want second hand smoke.  Pipe and good quality cigar smokers welcome in the patio.

Sorry can't get into it.

I can take inspiration from various things, probably because I never copy. I can certainly nick tricks from Hockney... But without ever looking like him.

I suspect that's the way to do it... To quote Mr. Punch.
