A 12-year-old boy’s lockdown painting project featuring collaborations with 250 artists from around the world is being auctioned for charity. Noah, who has hydrocephalus, epilepsy and cerebral palsy, began painting on cardboard at home in Dedham, Essex, last March.
His father posted on Instagram, asking artists to finish the pictures and the project went viral. The resulting art was published in a book and displayed in a gallery.More than 200 pieces will be sold on eBay to raise money for Colchester and Ipswich Hospitals Charity.
Noah’s father Nathan Jones said it was a great way to thank the doctors who had “played a huge part” in Noah’s life. He said the auction was the culmination of a year-long project which he “never could have imagined” would be so successful.
