In recent years David Hockney has returned to England to paint the
landscape of his childhood in East Yorkshire. Although his
passionate interest in new technologies has led him to develop a
virtuoso drawing technique on an iPad, he has also been accompanied
outdoors by the traditional sketchbook, an invaluable tool as he
works quickly to capture the changing light and fleeting effects of
the weather. Executed in watercolour and ink, these panoramic
scenes have the spatial complexity of finished paintings - the
broad sweep of sky or road, the patchwork tapestry of land - yet
convey the immediacy of Hockney's impressions. And as in the views
down village streets and across kitchen tables that appear
alongside them, his rooted and fond knowledge of the area around
the East Yorkshire Wolds is always clear. If you know the region,
the location of the sketches is unmistakable; if you don't, its
features will come to life in these pages.
