I was completely absorbed by every image on every page. It is a reminder to me that any single thing in this world can become art, it’s all in the way we see it. This is a remarkable sketchbook.

no it's all in the way he draws it, not how we see it

#teamcrumb I think you misunderstand my comment...

A privilege to see David Hockney’s sketch book.

I love how he’s so gentle with flipping the pages 🥺

You can just feel his passion for looking…what a MASTER PAINTER!

This goes to show- draw what you see-whatever your see- just draw

This was so inspiring (and relaxing)! I love the fact that there's no narration and no music. He just let the imagery speak for itself. Just wonderful!

I was about to write the same thing! Thanks for letting us hear the white noise.

One of the simplest and most interesting videos on the internet. Its a mirror for the simplicity of Hockney's draftsmanship actually.

These hands who made that art, but that art created by his soul . Just beautiful!! thank you

So nice to have no background music or people talking. A simple pleasure to look at a great artists work..thankyou

Agreed! I can't stand the constant noise in this world.

Love this so much - I’m glad there isn’t any distracting music

SO nice, seeing an artist still showing to the world that to draw is an unique tool - brain, eyes, hands, pleasure, sensations, and also a post-aesthetic pleasure to the viewer.

Mr. Hockney is brilliantly creative. He is original. His art has evolved as he aged. An amazing man and artist. He is also fascinating to listen to.

It was 6 minutes and 21 seconds of pure joy and enlightenment. What David Hockney inspires me the most, beyond his close inspections of art history and immense curiosity, is his endless passion about making images. That is something I have had as a kid but lost because of other occupations. I have recently decided to quit my job and dedicate myself to this passion. Thank you for sharing this video.

Checking in to see if you were able to quit your job and resume making art. I hope you did and were massively successful.

Just phenomenal, how I would love to (one day) own an original work by David Hockney. He is in my opinion an honest, true artist.

One of the greatest artists of all time...naturally gifted with a transcendent perspective.

Makes me want to pick up my pen and inks and make a point of drawing something at least every other day. Like that I can hear him breath as he flips through. Very peaceful. And then the loud intrusions to snap me out of it. The whole video is art. Thankyou for posting and Thankyou David 🌻

as someone else mentioned, THANK YOU for not feeling the need to add loud obnoxious background music to this. very INSPIRING!! i draw, but I have nothing like that sketchbook. NOTHING.

Favorite painter! Living legend... I feel motivating to do something like this ☕

I love his drawings so much!!!! Thank you for this video!

LEGEND, love his work. can't get enough of it

Mr. Hockney is such an amazing artist. One of our living master painters!

David Hockney 's sketchbook in Normandie , France ! Just wow !!!

The man is a genius. These are beautiful stunning imaginative lively and glorious

Wonderful sketch book- each page is a window into a new world.

Maestro!!!! Great drawings... One of favorite artists. Thanks for sharing!!!!

Very spontaneous drawings and almost like a diary.

I have loved David Hockney for as far back as I can remember engaging with art. He is one of my idols, a true genius, and probably our greatest living artist. I once had the pleasure of meeting him at the Barbican Centre when, for some reason, he suddenly made his way over to the group of people I was with. I thought I had died and gone to heaven!!!

Amazing book. David where did you get it?

Breathtaking.. No mistakes.. I fear the sketches are in first place..out do it or go down. Just perfect.. Really really sunken treasure

Simply fantastic. I love his work, such skill.

Wonderful to be able to meander through these like this. Thank goodness for the .25 playback speed option.

An absolute honour to see this sketchbook, thank you sincerely, always an inspiration xx

I adore this artist. He is a Genius. Thanks for the show

That was a joy to view. Thank you.

Fantastic beautiful.I love his expressive mark making love this so much

I have a mountain of old sketchbooks, somewhere down the road I stopped using sketchbooks and now I use any old piece of paper and shove them all into a folder. Thanks for the inspiration to get back to sketchbooks. I’m going to get myself a new one but not any old sketchbook, it will be the size of a shoe box.

This is so inspiring and encouraging! Than you for showing it here!

BEAUTIFUL! I love it, thank you so much for blessing us with it!

All of them are just beautiful

David Hockney - LOVE YOU!! and love your love of daschunds too~ Thank you for so many beautiful pieces of art. Thank you Iris Borgers~

Thank you very much for showing this.

Thank you for sharing, stunning

Loved watching this film amazing sketch books a window into a great artist

I love that it is a visual diary. I love the size of the sketchbook, not your average A5 but much larger! And I'm grateful for the silence. Thank you so much for sharing! Your sketchbook is an inspiration!

Thanks for sharing! I was inticed with every page

Wonderful! Thank you for sharing. Love David's work. He is so inspiring I always watch his videos in my studio before and during my painting process

Amazing. Thank you for sharing. Design, composition, mark making - all this accomplished in a sketchbook with the simplest tools. That’s inspiring and humbling at the same time.

What a gift to share your process. I’m humbled and inspired in equal measure. 🙏💕🌷

Thank you for showing us! He is a Master, each line on the right place! Greetings from Germany 🙋‍♀️

A house...in the middle of all. wonderful and phantastic book. So much soul

Loved the guiet simplicity of this view into the private space of a great painter. It was a real privilege. A finished and framed painting in a public gallery is an artist with their clothes on. A view of their sketch book is like seeing them naked. It's personal and private. He is exposing himself in such an intimate and vulnerable way. I feel privileged to have had a peek into his soul where he works out his thoughts and feelings. It pained me to see his arthritic hands, especially the left one. Not to put down foot and mouth painters, but an artist needs, not only a good eye, but also a flexible hand. Sketch on everyone.

Was luck enough to see a retrospective a couple years ago at the Metropolitan. Thank you for sharing this amazing video!

Brilliant, thanks so much for sharing xx

And I thought my drawing book is thick enough then this is like a BRICK

Unreal, thanks for posting

Fascinating, thank you for sharing it.

Phenomenal. His commitment to his work is inspiring, and the sketchbooks are intimate travels into his thinking about space and line. The checkered tablecloth is icing on the cake.

Fascinating! The B&W are out of this world. Thanks for sharing!

So pleasing to see. 💯 Motivation! Thanks you❤️

Amazing work and so inspiring! Thanks so much!

Fantastic. Both beautiful and inspiring.

Thankyou. I'm an artist aswell and the looking through my sketch books and paintings like this. It was wonderful to see someone else's work. Thank you again for sharing. ✌❤🐈🇨🇦

Wow, beautiful paintings! Impressive.

Thank you from Santiago de Chile

in love with this video! so calming and nice.

This book just left me speechless😍 even though I prefer abstract art the simple yet real in the sketches speaks volumes.

I am so happy to see this. So priviledged to see aaster's work, so inspiring! Thank you for sharing 💖

This was wonderful. Great to watch for inspiration before I start my creative work.

What I noticed is that the sketchbook is used as a sketchbook and not as a sketchbook/paperworks to be sold as single pieces, by drawing on both the front and the back of each sheet there’s a decision to keep these as a sketchbook. The effort and details in each ink drawing is sufficient to be a wholesome artwork, instead, David Hockney wanted this to stay as a sketchbook. You notice that he’s in Normandy, France, that he’s sketching in ink using an ink pen, paintbrush, and using coloured inks or adding watercolor here and there, there’s a personal direction in a sketchbook. Excellent

Simply beautiful 🌷

Merci pour ce partage de grand cœur.

Thank you 💕 for sharing

Mesmerizing. ❤

Thank you Mr. Hockey for giving us such a treat. It was intimate and fantastic.

Wow...💕

Soo amazing.

Love love love this

Wonderful 💕🙏🏼

Wow!!!'Yhis video was so very "Inspirational", I have the feeling as if I'm on a tour . Its something because it brings an individual close to him as if we're having this conversation. DAVIDHOCKNEY IS A VERY TALENTED AND GIFTED MAN ALIVE TODAY,AND THERE ARE A FEW MORE ,BUT HE DEFINITELY STANDS OUT FROM THOUSANDS.

What a treat!!!! Thank you!!!! 💜🍀🙏🏼🌿💜

Hi Iris ... I noticed on your "About" page that you are an artist, too. Would love to see some of your artwork if you've posted them somewhere. I imagine as a horticulturalist, plants and nature might be a subject you create art about. Another question (two actually) I have ... did you record the video of Hockney sharing his sketchbook and are you friends with him?

Gracias por compartir, está precioso!! Relaja y motiva! Felicidades!

Beautiful!

Best video I have seen so far on YTube . No talking, just showing amazing artwork . Love David Hockney. Thank you

Wow Thank you so much! So inspiring❤️ saw your expo in Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam! Wonderful! So nice to see these sketches. I will definitely pick his up again to try. I cannot draw but this is veryinspiring. I stopped when iI couldn’t draw something! Biut it is all about doing and impressions , thanks again!🎨❤️

i enjoyed it alot. appreciate sharing this video with us. hope you guys are well and better.

An amazing sketchbook! 👏

I loved this!

Wow. So beautifull

5:13 one of your best!!! I'm working on draws in human body and unless it seems contradictory, including a crowded space or a people reunion in a drawing, help to give vitality to every picture....Drawing more people in one picture give me a vision of what is my progress, not everybody are "good draw" but if I succes in only one ....it give power to continue improving.

Fantastic X

Amazing. I really like them

Merci infiniment ! Merveilleux... 😀🤩.

That's so beautiful!

Amazing each day improvement in technique style color coordination

Love this...Art a great pain relief.
