What kinds of paintings are featured on Nancy Rothera Maine Gallery?
Updated
Nancy Rothera Maine Gallery features paintings of Maine coastal scenery and landmarks, with a secondary Florida Gallery for Florida subjects. The Maine Gallery page lists works such as Cape Porpoise Harbor, Goat Island, Kennebunk Beach, Wood Island, and Biddeford Pool, alongside garden, church, boat, and winter scenes. If you are looking for recognizable southern Maine locations rendered in a consistent landscape style, this gallery is organized around exactly that.
Maine subjects: harbors, islands, and beaches
The Maine Gallery is dominated by named locations along the southern Maine coast. Recurring places include:
- Cape Porpoise — Cape Porpoise Harbor, Cape Porpoise Coop
- Biddeford Pool — Bidd Pool Retreat, Boats at Bidd Pool, Doorway at Bidd Pool, Street Scene at BP, BP Yacht Club
- Kennebunk area — Kennebunk Beach, Kennebunk Arbor, The Maine Stay
- Islands — Goat Island, Basket Island, Basket Is sand bar, Monument Island 1 and 2, Wood Island, Wood Island at Sunset, Eagles Nest
- Kennebunkport — Kport Ocean Scene, Kport Shops, Christmas Prelude (two works), Off Dock Square
Beach and water scenes also include Mile Stretch, Race to the Waves, On the Marsh, Across the Salt Pond, and Ocean House.
Gardens, churches, and rural scenes
Beyond the coast, the gallery includes garden and countryside subjects:
- Gardens and flowers — Sea of Lupins, Sea the Pansies, Secret Garden, Karens Garden, Lilacs by the Fence, Down the Garden Path, View with Hydrangeas, Arbor in Fog
- Churches — St Brendans Church, St Martins Church, St Phillips by the Sea, Union Church
- Rural and animal subjects — Mini Horses, Sheep in Meadow, Fletchers Lobsters
- Winter and seasonal — 3 Dories in Winter, Christmas Shack, Christmas Prelude
Boats and working waterfront
Several works center on boats and harbor activity: Lobster Boat, Lobster Boats on the River, Boats by the River, Fletchers Lobsters, and Fishermans Shack. These sit alongside the harbor and island scenes, so the gallery reads as a survey of Maine's working coast rather than a single-theme collection.
Florida Gallery and custom work
The site also has a Florida Gallery for Florida-related paintings, plus a Custom Gallery. The navigation lists Maine, Florida, Custom, and Contact as separate sections, so if your interest is Florida subjects or commissioned work, those are separate from the Maine Gallery list above.
Prints and formats
The Maine Gallery page notes that giclée prints are available. Listed sizes and prices are:
| Size | Price |

Specifications state that all prints are professionally printed on canvas with a depth of either 3/4" or 1.5". The page does not indicate whether original paintings are for sale or how custom orders are priced; for those details, the Contact section is the relevant entry point.
How to decide if it matches your interest
If you want paintings of specific southern Maine landmarks — Cape Porpoise, Biddeford Pool, Kennebunk Beach, Wood Island, or Kennebunkport — the titled works let you check for a particular location before contacting the artist. If your interest is Florida scenes, garden subjects, or a commissioned piece, use the Florida Gallery and Custom Gallery sections instead of the Maine list.
