Island Snow, Lookout Point, Maine

Watercolor

Lookout Point in Harpswell, Maine was a favorite of Alicia’s and her art students. Her art studio in Brunswick was within a thirty minute drive of this beautiful spot in the world. She first pencil sketched this scene and soon after painted this stunning watercolor. The Native Americans who originally inhabited Harpswell were part of the Abenaki tribe.The Abenaki name for Harpswell Neck, then called West Harpswell, meaning a “quick carrying place”, was on a narrow peninsula with easy portage. In 1758, the town of Harpswell was incorporated by the Massachusetts General Court and named for Harpswell in Lincolnshire, England. Industries here included farming and ship building, although fishing was the dominant trade and living for most locals. Notice how Alicia captured the brilliant hues of the sky and water as the lobster boat sits at mooring.
