<h2>Nigerian painter and artist Lola Mewu attempts to break and set a new Guinness world record.</h2>

<p><a href="https://www.pulse.ng/lifestyle/food-travel/5-nigerians-who-plan-to-break-a-guinness-world-record/fjphc0d">Earlier this year</a>, she announced that she was going to attempt to break the Guinness world record for the longest hour spent painting. <a href="https://www.pulse.ng/lifestyle/food-travel/nigerian-artist-receives-approval-to-begin-longest-painting-marathon/78m2e5h">Guinness World Records gave their approval</a>, and Lola began painting at 6:30pm Saturday, October 28, 2023.&nbsp;</p>

<p>One of the requirements of GWR is that the paintings should be auctioned off, perhaps to ensure that they are well done.</p>

<p>Many of Lola’s paintings feature throwbacks from childhood, like playing in class, visiting a call centre, and looking out the window. Some of the paintings have already been auctioned off.</p>

<p>Initially slated for 48 hours, Lola has extended the challenge to go for a day more. This means that by Tuesday, October 31, 2023, she would have completed her attempt.</p>
