Lupine Field in Rangeley, Maine


In early summer, there is always plenty of lupine in Maine. There was a lady who would go around spreading lupine seeds and she became known as the "Lupine Lady". Apparently she loved to go to Rangeley, especially to the golf course. As soon as I heard about it, I made sure I was there at the peak of the blooms.
If you are interested in purchasing this 12 X 9 original oil painting on panel (or I have several other lupine paintings) please email me at melanie.farmer@gmail.com $189 framed in a 2" gold frame (plus shipping and, if in Maine, sales tax)

Kibby Mountain in Autumn, Western Maine


As I was driving along, this mountain loomed up in front of me, glowing red and orange as the setting sun shone on the leaves still clinging to the trees. I have been up on top of Kibby (near Rangeley) several times in the winter on a snowmachine but it was a real treat to see it in it's fall dress!
If you are interested in purchasing this 8 X 6 original oil on panel, please email me at melanie.farmer@gmail.com SOLD - Poor Kibby! will never be the same. I love that mountain.

Small's Falls



This is the third painting I have done of Small's Falls in Rangeley since I have been creating a "painting a day". (well, almost)
It is a lovely spot, along Route 4 along the road to Rangeley and Saddleback Mountain, to stop and have a picnic, do a short hike, or go for a quick swim in the cold mountain spring water, or just to have a look around at the beautiful scenery and feel the power of the water rushing down over the falls from the mountains above. A special place that will touch you forever with the magic it holds.

If you are interested in purchasing this painting, framed or unframed, please email me. SOLD - but I would be happy to paint a similar one. melanie.farmer@gmail.com

A Painting a Day - Small's Falls, Rangeley, Maine


Today I decided to do a painting of a very popular place along Route 4 to Rangeley, Small's Falls. Last summer I hiked up along the trail beside it. Beyond this falls you see in my painting, there is another smaller one. Off on the other side of the hill another branch has another wider falls. It is all very spectacular and powerful. No wonder so many young folks hang out there and occasionally dive off the high rocks into the pool below! This is an oil on gessoed paper, which I will mount on board. It is approxmately 5.5 X 7.5. If you would like to own this lovely piece, please contact me by email.
