This is the very beginning of my ten weeks long holiday. What a day... I have only found out about the passing of David Hockney whose work was so widely appreciated at the Fondation Cartier in Paris, last summer. It was yesterday when I was admiring the portrait of Hockney by Lord Snowdon, shown at the National Portrait Gallery in London... not knowing.
Andy, thank you for gifting me a moment of joy. I am so pleased that my "Wild Dance" offered you an uplifting. I appreciate your sharing.
Kinga! You beat me to it — I was planning to email you this afternoon. Thanks so much for sharing your work with me. I would love to hear a project update when you have some time. Email me!
HI Andy, thank you for this post and the reminder of the death of David Hockney and the link to his NYT obit. I didn't realize and was amazed to discover the breadth of his body of work, I especially liked his cross hatch set for theatre. Many years ago I worked for a art gallery in Toronto and the owner had a few Hockneys in her collection, I was very fond of one of his swimming pool paintings. Enjoy your hike!
Especially sorry to hear about Duane Michals. I first saw his work back in the 70s, thought it really imaginative. I met him a couple of times, and always enjoyed his conversations and banter. Busy right up to the end, too, and fearless to try new things.

His bridge canvas inspired me to think about ways to shoot the new bridge near us.
