The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 21 March 2011 is an iPad drawing by David Hockney, issued as a limited edition print on paper. The composition shows a country road running through the centre of the scene, lit by bright sunlight with shadows stretching across the surface. On both sides, leafless bushes and shrubs in tones of red, burnt orange, and brown create a dense border, with touches of vivid orange foliage and green grass at their base. A slender tree in the left foreground frames the view and adds depth to the overall structure.
The Arrival of Spring, 21 March, 2011 was created on the iPad, in line with the full Arrival of Spring in Woldgate series. Hockney began experimenting seriously with iPad drawing during work on The Yosemite Suite in 2010 to 2011, before developing the 2011 Yorkshire landscape cycle. The market for the series has strengthened over time, supported by auction results and collector demand.
