February 2008: The Marius Liepa Gala

On Sunday 24th February, Halliday was invited to draw at the Marius Liepa Gala at the London Coliseum.

During the rehearsal in the afternoon he composed a magnificent picture of the Coliseum theatre with various participating stars, including Alina Cojacaru, Johan Kobborg, Svetlana Zakharova, Marianela Nunex and Thiago Soares depicted on the stage, as well as Andris Liepa, who directed the event.

Between the end of the rehearsal and the start of the performance, Halliday was able to frame the picture. He is seen (left) adding his signature.

That evening it was the star lot at the Gala Dinner auction, which was in aid of the Raisa Gorbachev Foundation.

The pen and wash studies are available from Dadbrook Gallery, either as originals or giclee prints. Please contact Dadbrook Gallery for further information.
