Stopped by the gallery one day and was absolutely mesmerized by Carol's paintings. She also hosted a small function as a part of a writer's seminar and could not be more gracious. Someday I will own a Carol Cronin painting!
Thanks so much for your review Kay. It was great to meet at the gallery and I'm glad you enjoyed the visit. It was so interesting to hear the workshop with the writers. was delighted to host it ! Hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip. All the best! Carol
We loved Carol’s gallery, we had to go back a second day! Her work is astounding, especially how she can capture the sea and skies in their beauty and enormity. Well worth going to! Bought her book whilst there. We were also lucky enough to meet her on our first day. Such a lovely lady. Well worth visiting!
Thanks so much for the great review Nuala. It's lovely to hear that you enjoyed your visit. Delighted to hear you came back the second day! Really hope you enjoy the book and that you enjoyed the rest of the trip. Your review is much appreciated! All the best! Carol
This gallery is like walking into a magic place! Carol's paintings are amazing and as one other reviewer said, they take your breath away! The fragrance of fresh oil paint and airy atmosphere make you feel that you are truly by the ocean. Carol is warm and friendly and she actually remembered us the second we walked in from our last visit 4 years ago. She is a delight! Even though I would have loved to purchase one of the paintings, I did leave with her book. When I unwrapped it at home on our return, it smelled just like the gallery and I was there all over again. Wonderful!
Gaye, Thank you so much for your review! It was so nice to see you both again and really enjoyed our chat. That really made me laugh about the smell of the gallery! I should explain. it's extract of spike lavender oil which I use as a thinner for the paintings instead of turpentine... apparently people are walking up and down Green street looking for lavender gardens in the neighbourhood, but it's all coming from the gallery.! I'm so glad you like it and hope you enjoy the book.
Thanks again for taking the time to write the review ( and the lovely photo). Hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip. All the best to you both. Carol
My husband and I visited this gallery on two occasions as we loved her breathtaking art so much. We found Carol to be very warm and friendly. Beautiful works of art - we wish Carol all the best for the future.
Hi You two,
Thanks so much for such a lovely review. I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit (s) to the gallery. It always is great to have people return and to hear their thoughts on the new work. Your review is much appreciated! All the best, Carol
We loved Carols work as my husband snd I are sailors and her paintings are so accurate depicting the sea. Don’t miss it.
Hi Vivien, Thanks so much. I'm always delighted when people who sail like my work! I really appreciate the thumbs up. All the best and happy sailing! Carol
Carol is always there and her paintings are like being IN the ocean. The depth and movement in unbelievable. Don't miss this...even if you can buy. She has captured the waters around Ireland perfectly
Hi Deborah! I had to smile when you said I'm always there... I do get days off occasionally :) I love the way you describe the paintings and it's true; I love it that visitors come to see the work whether they can buy or not... it's great for me to hear the positive feedback about the paintings! Thanks so much for taking the time to write your review. All the best!
