David Hockney switched paintbrush for IPad. And sells them for millions #davidhockney
February 18, 2026
One of the most important painters alive… chose an iPad. David Hockney didn’t switch mediums because he had to. He did it because he was curious. Oil paint was once new. Photography was controversial. Now it’s digital drawing. If a master uses an iPad — does it become fine art instantly? #DavidHockney #Hockney #iPadArt #DigitalArt #ContemporaryArt #short
