A pumpkin patch rests in a golden wheat field, with orange pumpkins and small orange and white wildflowers tucked among tall dry grasses along the bottom third of the canvas. The field stretches softly toward a low horizon, hazier and more distant, under a large expressive sky of soft clouds.

The painting is loose and impressionistic: broad soft strokes in the sky, moderate impasto in the pumpkins and clouds, and thinner dry-brush marks in the grass stalks. The light is diffused and gently warm, giving a nostalgic, pastoral and serene autumn mood.
