Lemma Kebede Mekonnen

Local painting and decorating and weaving

  • 🇪🇹 Gondar, Amhara, Ethiopia
  • Old Baobab Trades Guild
  • Since 1980
  • English, Amharic
My trade is painting and decorating. I opened my own shop in 1980 in Gondar and I'm still there most mornings. I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I walk the dog by the river. If we met, say hello. I'd love to know how life turned out.

More about Lemma

Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.
What gifts mean to Lemma: A gift would go toward tools for apprentices who can't afford their own.

    You fixed our roof in 1981 and charged half what others asked. Greetings from Busan.
