# Grackles — Framed Piece

Two Common Grackles in a tropical tree — one high on a branch singing, long tail fanned, the other hanging below among the broad leaves. The graphite study is from 1985, and the setting — plumeria flowers at left, large tropical foliage — suggests an observation made on one of Glen's working trips outside Canada. The rendering is exact: the grackle's iridescent plumage is suggested even in graphite through the careful modulation of tone.

Drawing was the foundation of Glen's practice, and this study shows that discipline applied to an unfamiliar subject and setting with complete confidence. Glen Loates is a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts; his graphite bird studies are among the most technically accomplished in Canadian wildlife art.

Presented as a complete framed piece — archival giclée hand-mounted, matted, and finished in your choice of gallery-quality frame. Arrives ready for the wall.
