Yosemite No. 10, 2010: iPad print from David Hockey's Yosemite Suite

Back to: Yosemite suite

Yosemite No. 10 is an iPad drawing by David Hockney from the artist’s Yosemite Suite. The composition depicts a stylised Yosemite meadow, where tall bright green trees cast bold blue shadows across a sunlit landscape beneath a pale hillside and clear sky. Hockney uses vivid tonal contrasts and layered digital brushwork to create depth and atmosphere throughout the scene, while the simplified forms and rhythmic structure reinforce the openness and scale of the Californian landscape.

The work reflects Hockney’s continued exploration of perspective, light, and the expressive possibilities of digital drawing. Created entirely on iPad, the Yosemite Suite marked an important development in Hockney’s digital practice, demonstrating how contemporary technology could expand the visual language of landscape art. Produced during the artist’s engagement with Yosemite National Park, the series captures changing light, texture, and spatial relationships with immediacy and precision. The Yosemite works are now regarded among the most significant digital landscapes within Hockney’s wider body of prints and editions, reinforcing Hockney’s influence on contemporary digital drawing.
