  • "Most people don't look at a face too long; they tend to look away. But you do if you are painting a portrait"

     

    - David Hockney

    This portrait of Peter Goulds portrays a quiet moment of reflection, with him seated and reading a newspaper. His posture is relaxed, with one leg crossed over the other, and his gaze focused intently on the pages. The composition is intimate, enhanced by the vibrant colors of his green shirt and the soft brown of his trousers. The setting features a small table with a water bottle and glass, adding to the scene's serene domesticity. The delicate vertical lines in the background subtly frame the figure, creating a sense of calm and focus.
