Meaning & Analysis
This digital artwork, an iPad drawing printed on paper created in 2011, captures the transformation of the English countryside as winter transitions to spring. It is part of Hockney's larger series, The Arrival Of Spring In 2011, which comprises iPad drawings documenting seasonal changes in East Yorkshire.
Hockney's The Arrival Of Spring In Woldgate East Yorkshire 23rd February 2011 exemplifies his innovative use of digital technology in fine art. The composition features a winding path flanked by trees, with early signs of spring emerging in the landscape. Hockney's characteristic bold lines and dynamic digital brushstrokes create a sense of movement, effectively conveying the subtle shifts in nature during this transitional period with bare tree branches on the right side of the composition contrasting with the green leafy trees on the left.
This piece is one of Hockney's iPad drawings in The Arrival Of Spring series, which Hockney created over a five-month period. The artist used the Brushes app on his iPad, allowing for rapid creation and experimentation with colour and form. This digital medium enabled Hockney to work en plein air, capturing the immediacy of the changing seasons in a way traditional mediums might not allow.
