I was just watching some David Hockney videos the day before yesterday and thinking, “It’s going to be a really sad day when you pass, and I feel like it will be soon.”
I wasn’t thinking this soon 🥺 I’m unprepared for this sadness.
RIP sir, & thank you 🖤
TORO
Farewell, David Hockney, & thank you.
You painted a hill I used to have to cycle up as a broke student in York going home to East Yorkshire once a month - a terrible, merciless, wretch of a thing that always left me walking like a sailor for days afterwards.
Your painting pulled no punches.
