5 8 David Hockney: A Bigger Picture Walking the Yorkshire Wolds can be as easy or as demanding as you like, from short circular walks to challenging rambles, all in magnificent scenery. W elcome to this journey through David Hockney's East Yorkshire landscape. It is based on the road from Bridlington to York that Hockney travelled almost daily for three months in 1997 when visiting his seriously ill friend, Jonathan Silver at Salts Mill. It was as a result of these journeys that Hockney painted his first East Yorkshire landscapes including The Road across the Wolds and Garrowby Hill. To appreciate Hockney s Yorkshire Wolds you have to leave the main road and explore, as he has done, the many narrow by-roads that take you through a peaceful countryside with rolling hills, hidden dry valleys, secluded villages and big skies. Everywhere there are groups of trees, brought to life by Hockney and the hedgerows that for a short time in early summer explode into glorious hawthorn blossom. Some of the actual locations for his paintings and drawings are identified, but what David Hockney wants you to do is to really look at the landscape; a cultivated landscape brought alive by the changing seasons. It is an open landscape and the trees, alone or in small plantations; stand out silhouetted against the sky. Hockney has shown that this landscape has beauty all throughout the year. The map opposite highlights some of the key locations that have inspired Hockney s recent landscape works. Look at the incredible variety of grasses, look at the marvellous leaves; look at the colour. Isn t it beautiful... pure joy. DAVID HOCKNEY 9 Vale of Pickering Malton/Norton Vale of York Pocklington Stamford Bridge to Thixendale Market Weighton Starting from Stamford Bridge, 8 miles east of York, continue eastwards along the A166, a Roman road, that takes you up Garrowby Hill. Near the top, look back and you will see the view over the Vale of York that Hockney painted from memory. Go left and down to the isolated and charming village of Thixendale, a good place to access the Yorkshire Wolds Way. About a mile and a half to the east, on the road to Fimber, just before a road junction, are the three trees near Thixendale the subject of a whole series of paintings. Hunmanby Driffield Yorkshire Coast Line railway Beverley Hessle Fridaythorpe to Warter Take the next road on the left up to Fridaythorpe and back onto the A166. Now go west and explore the landscape and villages to the south of the main road. Huggate is where David Hockney as a schoolboy worked in the fields in the summers of Millington is reached via the very long and curving Millington Dale, and Warter is where the Yorkshire Wolds Heritage Centre provides a great introduction to the landscape and history of the Wolds. The remarkable 50-canvas Bigger Trees near Warter was painted in the open air nearly 2 miles east of the village. Holderness HULL River Bridlington Bay Hornsea Warter to Bridlington From Warter go via North Dalton, Tibthorpe and Wetwang to Sledmere, a favourite village of Hockney which he painted in He is a frequent visitor to Sledmere House. From Sledmere follow the Bridlington Road, the B1253 for about three miles then turn right to Langtoft and on to Kilham, location for the series of tunnel paintings and films. From here go direct to Rudston, with its famous monolith, or follow Woldgate, a prehistoric routeway that runs from Kilham to Bridlington, which is the scene of many paintings including Winter Timber. Nearby is Burton Agnes Hall where Hockney painted scenes in the walled garden. 9
