Several Kerry artists have donated uniquely special artworks for this year’s Incognito art sale in aid of the Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation.
The thrill of the project is all in the anticipation, as the art buyer has no idea who the artist is behind their artwork until the sale is over.
A total of nine artists from the county have backed the fundraising endeavour which enables 14 Kerry families to continue to receive vital care and support from the Foundation for their children.
In what promises to be the biggest and best Incognito yet, among the artists to have offered support this year are Therese O’Keeffe from Killarney, Deirdre Geraghty from Caherciveen Don O’Neill from Ballyheigue and Dave Morrison from Ballybunion.
They join such other including fashion designers Helen Steele and Simone Rocha, creative director and professional dancer Arthur Gourounlian, singer-songwriter Róisín Murphy, TV cook Donal Skehan, Olympian Sonia O’Sullivan, broadcasters Joe Duffy, Jenny Buckley and Maia Dunphy and well-known professional artists Maser, William Murray and Thelma Mansfield.
At a cost of €70 each, there are 1,750 postcard-size artworks up for grabs in the Incognito online art sale at www.incognito.ie, where the collection can now be viewed.
Watercolours, oils, pastels, acrylics, stained glass and textiles are among the mediums employed by the artists across the entire collection.
The sale gets underway on Wednesday, April 16, from 8am when it will be a case of fastest-finger-first as to which lucky art aficionados scoop their prized piece.
2025 marks the ninth year of the Incognito art sale, which to date has raised over €1.2 million in funds to support vital in-home nursing and respite care provided by the Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation.
