Le Yack - Pool Boy — A Hockney Memory - Hand signed

Under the relentless California sky, a teenager cleans a turquoise pool whose water ripples in infinite arabesques. The house with pure lines, the palms standing like sentinels, the absolute noonday calm—everything evokes the golden hours of Bel Air or Palm Springs. An unapologetic homage to David Hockney's universe, this work celebrates Californian art in what is most recognizable: light, blue, modernist architecture, and the quiet sensuality of a body at rest. The young man, seen from behind, becomes a timeless figure—the summer eternal, leisure turned into art, and a certain idea of earthly paradise. The precision of drawing, the accuracy of the shadows, and the depth of the water compose a scene of rare contemplative beauty.
