    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 19 February 2011

    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 19 February 2011 is a David Hockney iPad drawing from the 25 edition regular size print release of his landmark series The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate. This piece portrays a vivid country road stretching into the distance beneath bare winter trees, with a mossy stone structure to the right and soft golden light illuminating the sky through a network of darkened branches.

     

    Created entirely on an iPad, Hockney’s Arrival of Spring collection captures the passing seasons in the Yorkshire countryside with modern fluency and traditional sensitivity. This pioneering series showcases how digital tools can express depth, texture, and mood in landscape art, reinforcing Hockney’s influence on the future of drawing.

    - David Hockney

    This artwork by David Hockney, created using an iPad and printed on paper, measures 55 by 41.5 inches. It captures a winding pathway enveloped in vibrant, abstract natural elements. The path, depicted in shades of pink and purple, draws the viewer into the distance, flanked by lush greenery and intricate vegetation. Hockney's masterful use of expressive black lines to portray overarching tree branches adds a dynamic depth to the scene. This limited edition print, with only 25 copies available, exemplifies Hockney's innovative approach to blending traditional landscape themes with modern digital techniques.
