Meet The Artist Behind The Masterpiece
Winfred Ansah Okoampah
My name is Winfred Okoampah, a wood carver who joined NOVICA 3 years ago. In the beginning, working with Novica was very hectic, because NOVICA quality is top notch and most of my pieces were rejected. But now that I’m familiar with NOVICA’s way of doing things, it is much better. It has even translated into my personal works that I sell in my shop. With NOVICA, the life of my family has also improved. My kids’ school fees are now well paid, and it has lessened hardship for me and my family. Before, paying my ward fees was painful, but with the sales I make from NOVICA I can access money to pay for it comfortably. My children can now raise their heads high.
