David Hockney’s mum visited him in Southern California after he’d moved there in the 1960s, and as they drove back from the airport she looked up into clear blue sky and said, “I don't understand it. Such lovely drying weather and no one's got their washing out." Bless.

I woke up to this. Although my birthday is on July 4th. All day my wife was asking me if I was having a lovely day. I just smiled and nodded. It wasn’t until dinner that she gave me a card with airline tickets to fly to Nice on the 4th of July.

Well, goodbye to the boy from Bradford, who reminded us of the power of the spring & greeted each of his own with such joy. Can't think of another artist I've seen more exhibitions by or bought more books about. Ta ra lad - who made a bigger splash than you? #hockney #hero

Remembering David Hockney, he was kind and always had a sparkle in his eye. He never stopped experimenting and is one of the finest painters of our generation.
