An Ontario pumpkin field at harvest — the great orange spheres scattered across the dried vine rows in the foreground, the field continuing to the horizon where a murmuration of starlings is lifting and banking over the distant treeline. This 1981 coloured pencil landscape is one of Glen's most expansive agricultural scenes: the repetition of the pumpkins across the middle distance creates a rhythm that carries the eye to the far field, where the starling murmuration provides the only movement in an otherwise still October afternoon.
Glen painted the working agricultural landscape with the same observational depth he brought to wilderness subjects. The vine tangles in the foreground are as carefully rendered as any forest floor detail; the starlings in the distance are small but specific. Glen Loates is a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts; this harvest landscape is one of his most atmospheric and distinctive seasonal works.
