Did the last few sell at £15k or did it jump from £12k to £15k after the soldout was posted. Looks like B will be the next one to go after book A. Interesting to see which ones are the most popular.

[bernard]

The popularity of A and B is odd to me, they are much less well executed versions of the last release in some respects and less about the window which is the entire concept of the project. In B the vase doesn't 'sit' on the sill properly. I've gone for D. I went for D last time too and having seen A in the flesh I'd 100% go with the same choice again...

[Fuzzyduck121]

It’s a simple case of first glances being deceptive and flowers being wall friendly
I can certainly vouch that after closer inspection D is the most classic image and the best executed,reflected in the fact it’s almost exactly the same as the image chosen for the cover of the book
It is classic Hockney and will in my view stand the test of time far better than A or B which as you say have better versions of similar images to compete with
I went for D myself but I understand why the Hockney type target market jumped on A and B
I believe that the others will also soon sell out or jump in price so whilst not cheap those still available at 8,500 will seem well priced very soon enough

From 27 February to 28 June 2020 there will be an exhibition of Hockney’s drawings at the National Portrait Gallery.

“The first major exhibition devoted to David Hockney’s drawings in over twenty years, David Hockney: Drawing from Life explores Hockney as a draughtsman from the 1950s to the present by focusing on depictions of himself and a small group of sitters close to him: his muse, Celia Birtwell; his mother, Laura Hockney; and friends, the curator, Gregory Evans, and master printer, Maurice Payne.

Featuring around 150 works from public and private collections across the world, as well as from the David Hockney Foundation and the artist, the exhibition will trace the trajectory of his practice by revisiting these five subjects over a period of six decades. Highlights include a series of new portraits; coloured pencil drawings created in Paris in the early 1970s; composite Polaroid portraits from the 1980s; and a selection of drawings from an intense period of self-scrutiny during the 1980s when the artist created a self-portrait every day over a period of two months.”

Must be the last show they're doing before the gallery closes

Interesting discussion with one of his regular models this morning on the Today programme on radio 4 this morning.

Really appreciate the post Coach. Just back from my best friends place, Godfather to his 2 daughters, and they are off to London this weekend to celebrate their Birthdays.

The eldest who is 11, showing a real interest in art, and mentioned this exhibition because of your post, and she was right chuffed to say the least - nice one.

Yep for 3 years. I heard they're taking many of the paintings on a tour of the UK while its closed.

dannubs - Didn't know that so thanks.

David Hockney shares exclusive art from Normandy, as 'a respite from the news' - www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-52109901

Saw these earlier on the BBC website. They are simple, beautiful and uplifting. My favourite iPad works for quite some time.

Thanks for sharing.

[pippyt75]

These are beautiful. Love his comments too.

Came across this great Hockney video today.

[maroom]

I was lucky enough to visit this twice and really enjoyed.
Also went to Annely Juda fine art but was a bit disappointed by it.

Here are some photos for those who didn't get to see it before it shut.





















These last 2 were from a video of sketchbook pages.

I reckon you could hang it on the wall. The tray edge looks like it’s framed.
