I am Hannah McGrenera and my family had the honour to travelled up to The National Gallery of Ireland for a day of photoshoot for INCOGNITO with Jack and Jill Children's Foundation last week to support the charity who had helped us so much.
Art sale is now live for viewing, many artists I had studied in college had taken part in this well worth cause in past and present. I grew up watching show from Don Conroy And I had the pleasure meeting with Don O'Neil at Design & Craft Council Ireland Showcase recently. I am loving how this artist community is coming around in full circle, supporting each other.
Thank you all the artists who had taken part in INCOGNITO, this is the 10th year and I also have my work submitted, can you guess which artwork belong to which artist and which ones are mine? Identity will be revealed after raffle sale. You can view the 1926 piece of postcard size original art here incognito – Jack & Jill Childrens Foundation
Our Mila has been receiving Jack and Jill nursing support since the day she left the hospital (she has lived in CUH for a year). What do Jack and Jill do? It gives families like ours the gift of time. Jack and Jill doesn't just provide care at home. Jack and Jill had helped me piece my family back together - and has given me a strength to hope again.
Every original artwork is €75... but the difference it makes is everything. I hope we did a good job campaigning for all families like ours.
Thank you all the media and press for covering this well worthy children's fundation's art sale. Campaign will be running till the day of sale is 20th of May.
Finally, a huge shout out to Clodagh Horgan and the team at Jack and Jill & INCOGNITO. To Eilin, our nurse manager and all the nurses and carers, we will be lost without you.
Our struggles are very real, but we are surrounded by love.
Hannah
