Watercolour challenge: "In his landscapes, Hockney stops bothering about what is and is not possible, and goes ahead anyway. In the portraits, he tries to wed the medium to a subject that it really cannot handle at any great depth. The portraits are irksome. But depth, in Hockney, is not really what one looks for, or expects. Accept that fact, forget the "greatest living artist" nonsense, and the water's lovely." [Guardian Unlimited]
