It is with deep regret that we inform you that artist Patrick Carroll passed away on Sunday 20th October 2019 through tragic circumstances. Each of us not only grieves at the passing of a tremendous individual but also for the loss his family, friends and the greater art community will suffer. We have indeed lost a dear friend and a valued tutor. Your support and friendship to the Artscene will be missed and never forgotten.   

Dearest Patrick, you will be sadly missed along life’s way, quietly remembered every day. No longer in our life to share, but in our hearts, you will always be there. Rest in Peace

“Patrick Carroll is an artist who does not shrink from subjects which present great complexity.  In fact the more difficult the image the more energised in his approach and resolution.  From the cluttered urban landscape of red roofs and narrow streets to the tangle of the Australian scrub he is able to distill its essence and grandeur and reflect it through confident brushstrokes and dramatic colours.”
