This lesson is packed with opportunities for experimentation using various techniques such as graphite, coloured pencil, and watercolour paint, all inspired by the work of David Hockney.

This engaging lesson can take up to two 1-hour sessions (or more), and you can extend the task by having students conduct their own research into each technique in pairs. At the bottom of the worksheet, there’s a Hockney painting example for students to recreate in different mediums. Please note: The PowerPoint includes the reference image, but does not show the Hockney painting recreated in watercolour or coloured pencil.
