Incognito art sale: All pieces available for €60 as artists and celebrities combine to raise funds

Don Conroy, The Edge and Peter Curling are among those who've contributed to the Incognito sale.

Artist Peter Curling is accustomed to working on a large canvas, given that he is famed for his equine portraits. So painting on a 15 x 10cm postcard is quite the challenge, but a welcome one given that it is for a good cause. Curling has been involved in the Incognito fundraising initiative since its inception in 2017. 

The online art sale raises money for the Jack and Jill Foundation, which provides home health care to seriously ill babies — one postcard equals four hours of specialist home nursing for a sick child. This year, 1,500 artists, from the emerging to the well-known to celebrities, have contributed over 3,500 original postcard-sized artworks on offer for €60 each — the unique selling point is the buyer doesn’t find out who has painted their postcard until they receive it.
