Grand Falls

Grand Falls

  I love Grand Falls! Many summers I would take a ride up there just to bathe myself in it's majesty and beauty. One year a friend led the way up there on snowmobiles.  It was still powerful and lovely in white of ice and snow. Fortunately I had my camera since it was dreadfully cold and not conducive to plein air painting. When I got home, I made this little painting. If you have been there, you know what the feeling of a cold, clear winter day is. If you would like to purchase this framed piece for your wall or a gift for someone who introduced you to the Falls, it is 11x7 oil on panel, for $169, please email me. melanie.farmer@gmail.com

Little Bigelow (Flagstaff Lake)

  Little Bigelow is a beautiful mountain. I love going camping at Cathedral Pines in Eustis and often see this mountain in many different lights. No matter the time of year or the weather of the moment or the amount of light, it is always spectacular. Very often I see canoes moving along the quiet waters of the Dead River which flows into Flagstaff Lake.
  This oil painting is framed 20x16, $499 plus tax in Maine. If you are interested in purchasing it, please contact melanie.farmer@gmail.com.

Evening Light on Bigelow Range

The first evening at Cathedral Pines Campground in Eustis, Maine, was warm and lovely. I wasted no time setting up my easel at the edge of the Dead River with part of the Bigelow Mountains in the background. The sun was setting low in behind me, creating a nice warm glow on the edge of the shore, the tree trunks and mountains. What a fabulous moment in time, a beaver swam by, a couple of ducks passed by looking for their supper and fish were jumping.

Thunder Clouds over Bigelow - Flagstaff Lake, Eustis, Maine

We love to go to Cathedral Pines Campground in the summertime and it is not so far that I cannnot commute to work. But on my days off I roam around there and paint many scenes, often out of the back of my jeep. Most of them I sell rather quickly as it is a very popular place and always produces a typical western Maine feeling. This view is from one of the few water sites, which is actually on the Dead River. It is very wide there and flows directly into Flagstaff Lake. I can't wait for summer again to get back up there and paint some more!

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!
