    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, 29 January 2011 is an iPad drawing by David Hockney from the Arrival of Spring in Woldgate series. The composition features a winding rural lane rendered in soft pink tones, with lime-green reflections across the surface. Low walls line both sides of the path, detailed with brick textures, architectural elements, and mossy greens. To the left, a tall tree frames the scene with branches stretching across the image, backed by dense foliage, while on the right a network of bare branches extends into the composition, reinforcing the quiet winter atmosphere of the Woldgate landscape.

     

    The Arrival of Spring, 29 January 2011 also demonstrates Hockney’s distinctive use of colour to reinterpret rural scenery. Rather than relying on naturalistic browns and greens, he introduces pinks, reds, oranges, and purples to create depth, warmth, and visual rhythm. Built through layered digital brushstrokes and tonal variation, colour becomes the central structure of the image, reflecting Hockney’s signature approach to landscape.
