His method of painting means that he takes several years to complete a work and  as a result  his exhibitions are eagerly awaited. Hodgkins paintings are primarily grounded in a remembered experience - a meeting with friends  a view across a landscape  the moment after a meal. From this starting point Hodgkin embarks on his painting and  working over a long period  produces layered  richly coloured  sweeping compositions  which extend into the picture frame. The finished paintings hover brilliantly between representation and abstraction and have been described as profound painterly equivalents for memory itself.
