David Hockney, deeply committed to the simple act of looking, found beauty in both the everyday & the extraordinary. His paintings of swimming pools, Yorkshire seasons and the people he loved exposed a unique vision of the world. His influence on contemporary art is immeasurable.
@Lidsville@Dave_Eby I don’t know if we are selling them or reprinted it recently, but we have one framed in the back. It’s a powerful image I have noticed & appreciated several times. Nice to learn more about it.
