Adebanji's painting and the model
This post is well overdue but I got caught up in the festive flush and couldn't do it on time. Now that it's winding up, I have been able to catch up with blogging and this had to be the first post up on my list.
This event took place on Thursday 15th December from 6pm to 9pm. It was the busiest night I have witnessed since attending this event in 2007. It affords anyone the great opportunity to paint alongside ROI members or just come in as a spectator.
Please bear with me, these are only about 30% of the artists present, it wasn't easy to paint and also move around to record the night's event, as there were easels packed everywhere, with spectators around every easel and very little space to 'breathe'.

There were 3 models on the night. Peter Wileman the President, Ian Cryer's Daughter and Peter Wileman's Daughter. I painted Ian Cryer's daughter and I really enjoyed the whole process. None of these models are professional but I must say, they were well professional on the night. David Pilgrim, an Associate member who painted Peter Wileman said, "He never moved a muscle".
These are some of the artists that I managed to catch on the night, I hope you enjoy! I have caught some of their paintings, sometimes I love to show them painting(which adds spice to the post) and also their palettes-I THINK PALETTES ARE WONDERFUL, ONE OF MY SECRET LOVES.
All the artists here are unique in their approach and I hope you take your time to observe even the minute details.
