This review is from: Hockney Drawing Retrospective (Hardcover)
Hockney is a master draftsman, as his work here proves: his drawings using colored pencil are particularly impressive. Reproductions are good (notice the yellow under-drawing on the cover) and the retrospective covers his work from 1954 (when he was 17) up until around 1994.
Anyone involved in the practice of drawing will be inspired by both his prodigious output and his skill. On opening this book, his originality and humor become apparent. There is a more provocative range of subject matter contained here than I would have expected, but nothing outside the normal range of human behavior.

I only wish I could have attended this exhibition and seen these works in person.
