Lac Cardinal, Peace River — Bag Insects and Butterflies Text: Glen Warner

Text: Glen Warner

A Red Fox moves through a winter cedar wood — the orange of the fox vivid against the snow

The Life Plant earned its common name from exactly this property

Glen rendered the lynx's face with the meticulous graphite work that distinguished his drawing practice from his watercolours: every individual strand of the ruff suggested rather than laboured

What you are looking at is the work itself: a single bald eagle settling onto a weathered branch

Lac Cardinal, Peace River — Bag Insects and Butterflies Text: Glen WarnerGold aspens on the bank of Lac Cardinal on the Peace River the trunks white against the yellow canopy, the lake visible through the trees, the far shore just a blue line across the water.
