Pool construction manual + David Hockney, A Bigger Splash (1967)

Hockney acknowledged he had used “a photograph I found in a book about how to build swimming pools I found on a news stand in Hollywood.”

#SideBySide #Art #Painting #ArtHistory #DavidHockney #ABiggerSplash

The image is split into two sections.

The first image is a vintage magazine cover titled “Sunset Swimming Pools,” featuring a mid-century style poolside scene with a house in the background, lounge chairs, and people relaxing, while a big splash in the pool suggests someone has just dived in from the nearby board.

The second image is a minimalist illustration of a mid-century modern home with a flat roof, large glass windows, and two tall palm trees in the background, seen across a bright blue swimming pool where a large splash indicates someone has just jumped from the yellow diving board.

Every day last year I drew a portrait of someone on their birthday using my non dominant left hand to help maintain brain function and to see how much I improved.

Matthias Schoenaerts no acepta papeles en los que no vaya a salir desnudo al menos una vez.

Yes clothes, yes problems.
