Sugarloaf and the Carrabassett River


This is an awesome scene of Sugarloaf Mountain, but one has to hike down thru the puckerbrush to get to the frozen Carrabassett River to view it. In the winter, I take a photo and paint in my studio. If you don't want to make the hike, you can enjoy this view in the comfort of your home. It is an oil on canvas, sized 10 X 10 and framed in a 2" gold frame. This is for sale for $199 plus Maine tax.

A Sugarloaf Evening


As you drive north on Route 27, from Farmington, you round a corner and suddenly appearing in front of you is Sugarloaf Mountain! She stands there majestically,boldly inviting. And you may exclaim "O My Gosh!", hence the name of the corner. It is very impressive and if you are a skiier; you can't wait to get up on those trails.
I have painted this in summer and winter, this is a late season period, when the snow still clings to the mountain for those last ski runs and has mostly melted from the fields. A reminder of good times and another winter in Maine.
This painting is an oil on canvas, 11 X 8, and is framed in a 2" gold frame. It is for sale for $199 plus Maine tax. If you are interested in purchasing it from me, please email me at melanie.farmer@gmail.com.

Western Maine Mountain Range


Here is a painting I did from near the top of Ira Mountain in Kingfield, Maine. What breathtaking views all the way up and all the way down! I don't know all the mountains and bodies of water that I could see, but they are all put together in such a magnificent way.

Bigelow Range in Winter, Maine




Here is a winter view of the Bigelow Range as I saw it when snowmobling in cut over areas last winter. See the little trail going down through the woods. Snowmobiling gets me in places that I wouldn't ordinarily go in winter, close to mountains that would take hours to climb in the summer. The hardwoods have all dropped their leaves, making more open views to enjoy.
This is one of my personal favorites, a rememberance of a lovely day on the trails. It is 11 X 8 on panel, original oil painting. If you are interested in purchasing this one, please email me at melanie.farmer@gmail.com. SOLD!

Sugarloaf Ski Area


This high view was from a snowmobile trail, overlooking all of the Sugarloaf ski area, golf course and ski village. What a view! Few get to see it from here, but I bring it to you as an original oil on panel. You could be the only one to have such a vantage point of Sugarloaf USA.

Sugarloaf Ski Area, Carrabassett Valley, Kingfield, Maine



Here is a painting of Sugarloaf Ski area. When you are driving north on Route 27, you catch a glimpse of a portion of it now and then, and then! All of sudden you come around a corner and the whole mountain looms up in front of you and you gasp in surprise and say "oh, my gosh!" Here is a little painting of it as you would see it from what is known as "oh, My Gosh Corner".
Columbus Day weekend I will be with many other artists at the Base Lodge, Summit Hotel, Sugarloaf USA. Why don't you take advantage of a pleasant ride amidst the warm autumn colors and get an early start on your Christmas shopping?

Sugarloaf from North Branch of the Dead River , Maine


My third and final painting while I was up at Cathedral Pines is from the causeway above the Pines, looking down over the Bigelow Range. Sugarloaf Mountain peeks up there in the center of it all. I got up very early to catch the early sun. It was lovely and quiet. A mother duck brought her large brood very near where I was painting. The light changed quickly as the mist rose and the shadows changed, but I captured the essence of the dawn. The early sunlight made the little islands glow on the east side while the west side remained dark.

Bigelow Range and Cathedral Pines paintings


Cathedral Pines is a lovely family campground in the town of Eustis, Maine. The sites on the North Branch of the Dead River have fantastic views. I did several paintings there and will post them here on my blog. The first one is done from the Causway where the road curves around the bend in the river and crosses over it. I set up in the back of my jeep with plenty of bug spray applied. It was a misty day and before long it started to rain and the painting became soft and misty looking. It shows the Bigelow Range with the Horns and Cranberry Mountain. Both of which I had climbed a couple of years ago.
