More than 1,000 children have taken part in an art project in Lagos aimed at setting a Guinness World Record for the largest fabric marbling painting.

The project, known as Colours of Possibility, was organised by Nigerian artist, Dr Fola David, and brought together young participants to showcase their artistic abilities through a collective creative effort.

The initiative has drawn commendation from Princess Damilola Sonayon-James, the All Progressives Congress (APC) deputy governorship candidate for the 2027 Lagos State election, who expressed support for the children’s participation.

In a post on X on Thursday, Sonayon-James said the event reflected the potential of young Nigerians to make meaningful contributions across different fields, TVC News reported.

She also pointed to the achievements of young people in the creative and sporting industries, noting that their abilities extend beyond conventional expectations.

“From arts, sports, and film to music, our young people continue to demonstrate that there is no ceiling beyond their greatness,” she said.
