I have loved David Hockney’s work ever since I first encountered it.
He left England around the time I was heading on a train down South.
And then he discovered the California light and life..after Yorkshire, and Notting Hill and Ozzie and Celia…
He was once on a plane, a few seats ahead of me, flying to Los Angeles..and I was dying to approach him, to tell him, somewhat breathlessly, how much I appreciated him..but it seemed invasive…and that’s the last thing I am. So I just spent most of the journey in awe and wonder at the fact that he was there…
Wonderful David Hockney! What a mensch you are!!!
