The Grand Duchess of the Garden

This grand wisteria was planted when our house was built in 1954. We call her the Grand Duchess of the Garden.

I started this painting last weekend while painting outside in the garden. After working on it every evening the past week, she is finished.

18″x 24″ on Arches hot press cotton block. Most of the paint that I used was made by Daniel Smith of Seattle, Washington.
