  • "I have never seen an ugly natural landscape"

    - David Hockney

    Measuring 93" x 70", Yosemite III, October 5th, 2011 immerses the viewer in the serene yet mysterious atmosphere of Yosemite's dense forest. The towering trees, rendered in deep shades of green, create a natural cathedral, drawing the eye upward. The subtle mist that blankets the scene adds an element of tranquility, as if the forest is slowly waking from a dream. The simplicity of the composition, with its narrow path leading into the unknown, invites reflection on the beauty and solitude of nature. Hockney’s digital technique enhances the soft, painterly quality of the piece, making it both contemporary and timeless.
