    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 1 April 2011 is a David Hockney iPad drawing from the 25-edition, regular size print release of his 49-part digital series The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate. This digital artwork presents a gently curving rural lane framed by bare winter trees forming a natural tunnel. Green grass and scattered yellow flowers suggest the early signs of seasonal transition, while the pale blue sky brings balance and serenity to the scene.

     

    Created using an iPad, Hockney’s Arrival of Spring series transforms observational drawing into digital expression. This collection documents Yorkshire’s changing landscapes with vivid immediacy, capturing the emotional essence of spring through colour, rhythm, and modern technique.
