Painting Opportunities:

Midcoast Maine is a favorite spot for vacationers, and many American painters —including Rockwell Kent, Robert Henri, the Wyeth family and many more. Paintable scenes on the property include the dock, a hammock by the sea, passing sailboats, and two barns.  Places nearby include clam flats, cliffs by a pond, a sand beach and Pemaquid Lighthouse.  The Audubon woods next door offer intimate, shaded views.  Stone walls run along a blueberry field.  The Audubon dock and fish house lie just across the water.  For a day trip, there’s Monhegan’s Island with its cliffs, lobster boats and village below a lighthouse.  An hour away stands Rockland’s Farnsworth Museum full of inspiring paintings.  Nearby lie the salt marshes of Thomaston where the Wyeths have painted.
