GREAT INSPIRATION for our S3 homework this week (iPad art) David Hockney has created 10 iPad ‘paintings’ whilst in lockdown. He is 83 years old and still embraces technology in his practice! He has also said: ‘the source of art is love.’ @forresterhs #lockdown #DavidHockney

This is from David Hockney, currently self-isolating in Normandy where he is drawing and painting the arrival of spring. “I really believe the source of art is love”. See all ten of his brand new images on the BBC website

Tuesdays @Forriesart art challenge LAND ART using natural objects in your garden or your daily walk create a sculpture inspired by the work of Andy Goldsworthy. Arrange, stack, cut, layer, balance THEN Photograph and share! GOOD LUCK! #forresterhs
