This painting is inspired by a private garden in Nenthead, Cumbria. Nenthead is the highest village in England at 1500 feet above sea level, and so gardening in this part of the world can be a challenge!

This garden is carved out of the fells, with a piece of field walled off and filled with colour and exploding with lupins as well as other plants and flowers

The diptych follows the rules of the Golden Section, which has been used for centuries in art, but also reflects the mysteries of nature.

The name comes from the Lupin, being Latin for Wolf, and the incongruity of scene, in this part of the world that usually has sheep on its land – not Lupins!
