On a drive through what is known as the "Apple Loop" near Hood River, Oregon in September, I was on a mission to find a beautiful Mt. Hood view for my painting series of the Columbia River Gorge.  I was a beautiful clear day and I made many stops and found peeks of the mountain from different farms and vantage points.  

The Mt. View Orchards weathered sign was what I was looking for.  A friend had suggested that I stop there.  The fruit was delicious, the view of Mount Hood was spectacular, but the mountain with the rows of late season Dahlias growing in the foreground was the inspiration I was looking for.  I knew it would become a painting.
