Another thing that I notice about Hockney is his strong relation to cubism.

Much like this art work by Pablo Picasso. As you can see there are strong links between the two forms, and the two artists.
One of the strongest links I see between the two is layering, in Picasso’s work you can see he’s almost layered the oils and paint used to create different angles and different perspectives. For Hockney I feel it’s the layering of time which leads him to create the works that he does.
