David Hockney Pads Quotations

Until I saw my drawings replayed on the iPad, I'd never seen myself draw. Someone watching me would be concentrating on the exact moment, but I'd always be thinking a little bit ahead. That's especially so in a drawing where you are limiting yourself, a line drawing for example. When you are doing them you are very tense, because you have to reduce everything to such simple terms.

I have got an iPad, what a joy! Van Gogh would have loved it, and he could have written his letters on it as well.

On the iPhone I tended to draw with my thumb. Whereas the moment I got to the iPad, I found myself using every finger.

I see the iPad as a wonderful new drawing medium, but I am at a loss as to how to make it pay.
