Columbia River Gorge



Living in the Columbia River Gorge provides infinite inspiration for views that are
close to my heart and my home.  I live in the Columbia River Gorge.  Every single day there is beauty right outside my window or only steps away.  These paintings represent three of the most viewed sights in the Gorge." Multnomah Fall"s hosts over a million visitors a year.  There is never a bad day to view the falls.  "Vista House" at Crown Point is a historic monument built after world war II when they were building the Historic Columbia River Highway. " The "Columbia Gorge" painting is the view looking east from Vista House.  It is a spectacular vista, which was undoubtedly the source of  inspiration for the name for the domed view point near by.
