  • "I have never seen an ugly natural landscape"

    - David Hockney

    Measuring 37" x 28", Yosemite No. 18 captures the essence of the Yosemite forest with a bold and striking focus on a single tree. The rich green tones dominate the composition, creating a vibrant yet serene atmosphere that immerses the viewer in the heart of nature. Hockney's use of digital brushstrokes gives the tree's texture and the surrounding foliage a dynamic, almost tactile quality. The interplay of light and shadow across the trunk and branches emphasizes the tree's form, highlighting the natural beauty of the forest. This piece exemplifies Hockney's ability to blend modern technology with traditional landscape art, resulting in a work that is both contemporary and timeless.
