“Do remember they can’t cancel the spring”

David Hockney has shared a new artwork to welcome in the spring. Drawn on an iPad, it shows a crop of bright yellow daffodils with the title “Do remember they can’t cancel the spring”.

David Hockney created the piece in Normandy where the 82-year-old artist is in lockdown. The artist shared the image with the Louisiana Museum of Art in Denmark and London's National Portrait Gallery which was then shared on the Instagram page of both institutions.
