What a tranquil experience! So unexpected! Unique sculptures and art to see... Great outing if you want to try something new! Maureen and her daughter didn't shy away and they engaged comfortably with us in conversation. We left there feeling inspired and relaxed! Bring your book and come and enjoy a refreshing lemonade under the jakaranda tree while being surrounded by hand sculptured faces and just BE!
It is an absolute privilege to meet an artist and be made privy to the inspiration that engenders the art, well as the process of creation. Maureen's work is globally renowned and moving beyond words. Her garden is beautiful and the freedom to roam in it and interact with her pieces in their setting, as well as to listen to Maureen and be in her studio, are experiences NOT to be missed.
What a magical experience. Maureen Quin and her daughter were very welcoming and available for questioning during our visit.The sculptures each have their own story and awaken a wide variety of emotions. I will definitely recommend anyone interested in art, sculptures or history to visit Quin Sculpture Garden that is situated between PE and Kenton on Sea.
A fascinating personal guided tour of her garden by the sculptor, Maureen Quin, who took time out to explain the background of several of her works, including a view into her studio where new masterpieces are being created.
Wonderful experience, and amazing art! A definate must if you are in that area! I even met the amazing artist!
Loved the experience! Serenity and beauty. You can take a walk in the garden and stop for a spot of tea under the trees. Before continuing through to the studio and gallery. Beautiful garden and all of Quinn's work is good for thought and discussion. I got to meet the artist as she lives on site so that was super awesome also.
Wonderful spot to stop. Beautiful garden and stunning scupltures. An absolute pleasure to chat with Maureen Quin about her work. Tea and coffee in the garden too, so peaceful.
What a great experience! This is a serious artist with incredible talent. The setting is beautiful and the working studio is a good way to see how Maureen does her work. Well worth a visit.
