This painting is from an old collection which was painted in 2001 for a show at the Fish Bone Gallery.  This is when my style of using lines and creating a 3D type of illusion with acrylic paint was born. 

Kemekem is a word meaning for freshly mown grass in Ethiopia. It is also a term for beautiful, well combed Afro.  Kemekem reminds me of the love song I used to listen to back home in Ethiopia by Muluken Melesse and Maritu Legese.
