A high vantage over Hockley Valley at the height of autumn. Pale trunks rise through the foreground and frame the view beyond, where a slope of reds and oranges falls away to rolling blue hills. A weathered split-rail fence and a single boulder anchor the lower edge.
Glen built the scene entirely in colour pencil, laying down fine individual strokes so the texture of the paper still breathes through the colour. It is the same patient mark-making he uses for feather and fur, turned here to bark, leaves and distance. Throughout his career he drove into the southern Ontario countryside in search of new subjects and background material, and works like this one come from that habit of looking.
