Description

I find joy in sketching the mundane details of our everyday and discovering the stories of our familiar scenery.  I believe that from dusk till dawn, season to season, all that we witness is a motif and every step we take is a journey through life.  My aspiration is for readers to experience the retro and modern scenery of Canada and feel its refreshing wind and light through this book – Hiroshi Yamamoto
