RCA Secret 2016: Jazz Green and Doug Patterson postcards in exhibition

ARTWORKS artists Jazz Green and Doug Patterson, both graduates of The Royal College of Art, have contributed postcards to this year’s RCA Secret exhibition. Each postcard is signed only on the back by the contributing artist, so the identity of the artists is not known until after purchase. The sale of secret postcards starts on Sunday 10th April 2016, and the cards always sell fast!
