    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 24 April 2011 is a David Hockney iPad drawing from the 25-edition, regular size print release of his 49-part Arrival of Spring in Woldgate collection. This work presents a bold tree stump in the foreground, its bark rendered in deep maroon and pale greys, surrounded by bright spring greens. Behind it, a stylised woodland rises in layered vertical lines, bathed in soft turquoise light.

Fusing modern digital tools with plein-air tradition, the collection reimagines landscape painting through intuitive gesture, fresh colour, and emotional immediacy, affirming its place in both his digital legacy and contemporary British art.
