    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 18 January 2011 by David Hockney is an iPad drawing issued as a limited edition print on paper from his Arrival of Spring in Woldgate series. The composition centres on a winding country road running through a Yorkshire woodland setting. The road, rendered in cool grey and blue tones with touches of violet, curves through the middle of the scene. A green tree with varied tonal detailing frames the left side, while a cut tree stump appears on the right, a recurring motif across several works in the series. Layers of green and mauve build depth in the surrounding forest backdrop.

     

    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, 18 January 2011 also reflects the technological shift in Hockney’s practice toward digital image making. From 2009/2010 onward, he began using the iPhone and iPad to create landscape studies that combine his established colour language with new digital tools. Across the 52 works in the Arrival of Spring in Woldgate set, the changing scenery and evolving mark-making operate like a visual journal, recording both seasonal change and the artist’s ongoing experimentation with digital media.
