‘My wife and I were greatly saddened to learn of the death of David Hockney O.M., a giant of the world of art and painting, a Yorkshireman through and through and a dear friend and inspiration to so many.
David was one of life’s true originals; one who wore his genius as lightly as those beloved yellow Crocs of his that helped brighten Palace occasions. I trust they will see him tread safely into the hereafter as we mourn a man whose irrepressible charm, talent and constant innovation will be most sorely missed, but whose dazzling creativity lives on in galleries and museums around the world.’

@sakura_nyancolo 大画家がiPadで絵を描くなんて!みたいなハードルもひょいと乗り越え作り続けていった、まさにBe yourself love lifeな解き放たれた方でありました。若き日に母国を捨てて(ゲイなので偏見すごかったらしい)、でも最期はやはり母国の地で眠れたのもよかったです🥲
