"Sturdy, elegant spikes of brilliant white dazzle your friends and guests as you show off your garden border.  Even after the sun has set, the blooms of the white lupine seem to glow in the dark."

Artist comment:  "I had a wonderful garden in Olympia, Washington.  Among the many flowers, I was fortunate to have a plethora of lupines in a variety of pastel colors and white.  It was a challenge to paint these white spires.  On 140# Arches hot-pressed watercolor paper, I lightly sketched the outline of the composition, then washed in an abstract background, leaving the subject and leaves unpainted.  When it was dry, I began to layer the shadow areas of the flowers, paying close attention to the subtle hues.  Then I completed the painting by painting the leaves."
