Painting Description
This extravagant party is painted beautifully by Oshole Precious showing the prominent party culture that exists in West-African culture. It used to be festivals that took the center stage in traditional African society. But celebrations have morphed into a whole new level. They no longer happen at specific times of the year; they now occur every Saturday. Today, no Nigerian weekend is complete without an Owambe party. Owambe is a lavish and flamboyant party thrown by Nigerians which is usually characterized by a show of luxury, lavish spending, colour, extravaganza, paparazzi, lots of food, music, dance, and networking. The origin is in Western Nigeria, particularly the Yoruba culture. Such parties are usually thrown during birthdays, housewarmings, naming, reunions, but most especially during weddings and sometimes, funerals. Generally, the larger the Owambe party, the more successful its perceived.
