Roscommon artists go undercover for Incognito 2023
Roscommon artists have once again illustrated their hearts of gold, with 14 local artists taking part in Incognito 2023, Ireland’s most mysterious online art sale, taking place on Wednesday, April 26th in aid of the Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation.
What makes Incognito so special is that prospective buyers have absolutely no idea who the artist is behind their favourite postcard-sized artwork, until the collection has sold out and the artists are revealed.
Almost 3,000 original pieces of postcard-sized art from over 1,000 artists will be sold as part of this year’s Incognito secret art sale, held in aid of the Jack and Jill Children’s Foundation.
Among the Roscommon artists participating this year are Stacey Mulligan from Castlerea, and Mary Rush and Mary Shannon, both from Roscommon town. They join a galaxy of superstars taking part, including rock legend Ronnie Wood, Westlife’s Mark Feehily, singer Brian Kennedy, fashion designers Don O’Neill and Paul and William Costelloe, folk singer Mary Black, actress Norma Sheahan, and Eimear Quinn of ‘The Voice’ renown.
The Incognito 2023 col- lection of almost 3,000 original pieces of postcardsized art by over 1,000 artists, is available to view at incognito.ie. Interested purchasers are being strongly advised to register, view the collection, and create their Wish List of their top ten artworks in order of preference ahead of the sale, so as not to miss out on securing their favourites.
Now in its seventh year, Incognito has raised over €860,000 to date in providing in-home nursing care and respite support to Jack and Jill families, including thirteen families living in Roscommon.
