    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 19th April 2011

    The Arrival of Spring in Woldgate, East Yorkshire, 19th 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 series. This digital painting portrays a forest interior filled with tall, slender tree trunks emerging into early leaf. Yellow blossoms punctuate the scene, while a central tree stump anchors the foreground above rich green undergrowth and a soft woodland trail receding into the distance.

     

    Hockney’s Arrival of Spring series documents seasonal renewal across East Yorkshire using iPad drawing. Through colour, light, and gestural digital lines, he reimagines traditional landscape painting for the digital age, blending immediacy and composition in one of the most iconic British art series of the 21st century.
