“We commissioned Michelle to create a painting that captures what we love about the Deschutes River. Michelle exceeded our expectations in every way.

She took great care in listening to what makes this river so special to us and then went took the extra step of creating a draft for us to review. We cannot possibly say enough wonderful things about Michelle and her work. We recommend Michelle Yamamoto to anyone looking to capture whatever is special in life and to masterfully embody that into a compelling piece of art.

Our new treasured painting hangs proudly in our home and is the first thing we see when we enter. The painting is a welcomed reminder of how fortunate we are to live next to a world class river and to have friends like Michelle whose artistic talents are truly one of a kind.”
