    "Courtship by Silas Adelanke Adeoye. Silas Adelanke Adeoye was",
    "born in Osun State, the South-Western part of Nigeria, in 1962.",
    "He took to fine art early, experimenting with various ideas and",
    "coming up with innovative techniques before even starting his",
    "primary education. He largely developed as an artist by himself,",
    "later joining a group of young, prominent artists at the",
    "National Museum, Lagos. His works represent a continuation in",
    "the tradition of Yoruba Art, recognizable by his choice of",
    "pigment to suit each motif. Visual art, in the historic Yoruba",
    "setting, was generally restricted to the courts of the kings and",
    "chiefs, and to religious houses. Silas believes that it is the",
    "responsibility of the modern artist to extend the enjoyment of",
    "this unique form of expression to a far broader audience in a",
    "manner that music and poetry, are today. Adeoye uses the",
    "technique of pointillism exclusively in his work, a technique",
    "that is utilized by few contemporary artists."
