    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 12 April No.1 2011 is a David Hockney iPad drawing from the 25-edition, regular size print release of his 49-part series The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate. This composition features a crooked hedgerow tree with both budding spring leaves and bare branches, arching across a field of rich green grass. The scene is layered with vibrant textures, and warm tones on the horizon suggest the depth of the surrounding landscape under a pale Yorkshire sky.

     

    Hockney’s iPad series offers a fresh interpretation of landscape art, using digital tools to document nature’s awakening. The Arrival of Spring captures daily shifts in colour, light, and rhythm, establishing the collection as a seminal work in 21st-century digital drawing and a celebration of the East Yorkshire countryside.
