Ms Nevill, 29, told the PA news agency: “I’m a Hockney fan myself, I have been to his exhibitions before and I’ll be going to the exhibition in the summer.
“I get the light-heartedness of the piece that he’s made… it’s provoked a response in the public, which is amazing, because it gets people who aren’t interested in art talking about art.”
Hockney’s work was provided for free but has prompted a mixed response online, with some mocking the child-like sketch style of his illustration.
