  • I thought I’d show you what I was up to when I made four trips to Eritrea between 99-2004. These are hand pulled serigraphs (screen prints). Two of the ladies in the prints are people we know and visit when we go back ( Martyrs Mother – Ganet and Solomons Bride is named Alganesh, her husband is a friend and one of my travel companions when he can get away. He works for the government in a division of export. On the last trip my wife and I took Solomon, his wife Alganesh and 5 of their 7 kids to Gurgussom for the weekend, they have lived in Asmara all their life and never been to Massawa, they had a blast.
