A charming collection ... an essential book for devotees of Dachshunds or Hockney. David Hockney introduces his two dachshunds, Stanley and Boodgie, in this delightful collection. The result of keen observation and affection, these artworks are lyrical studies in form and design, while the artist's text offers insight into working with models that don't necessarily want to sit still. Since September 1993, I've been painting and drawing my dogs. This required some planning, as dogs are generally not interested in Art. These two beloved creatures are my friends. They are smart, full of love, comic, and often bored. Do they watch me as I work? I observe the warm shadows they create together, their sorrows and joys. And, as Hollywood dogs, they somehow seem to know a picture is being made. - David Hockney
