I don't live in Llanelli anymore so i always make time to visit the gallery. There is always something new and exciting to see. Perfect for reminders of home.

How lucky we are to have this gallery in Llanelli. It is small and compact which only adds to its charm and it is filled from top to bottom with the most wonderful originals and prints from Denise di Batista's collection. I have made several purchases from this gallery for both myself and friends. Everyone has loved their gifts. Pay it a visit - you will be enchanted by the warmth of the owners and the variety of paintings and gifts on offer - I just love it !

If you love art then visiting this gallery is a must. Denise's work it stunning, her use of colours just beautiful. We first came across her artwork a couple of years ago and made a point of visiting the gallery. Denise and her husband are so helpful and welcoming, it will be a place that we continue to go back to I'm sure.

Denise Di Battista is a very exciting and exceptional artist. I simply adore her work. Denise's interpretation of images, both real and imagined, is truly inspiring and beautiful. It is rare to find something that can not only enhance the beauty of your surroundings but also enhance your wellbeing by taking you to another place in your mind. I can be absorbed by her paintings for hours and I never tire of them. Each is unique and engaging.
Denise and Ivano Di Battista are approachable, friendly and exceptionally accommodating. I have spent many hours in their gallery and they are always very welcoming. They give their visitors time and space to admire the gallery's paintings and pieces with no pressure to buy. If you do choose to buy, they offer several sensible options to make art accessible to all.
I highly recommend people visit the gallery if possible as the paintings, whilst beautiful online, have an additional level of beauty and depth when seen in person. I truly believe that Denise is a hidden gem of an artist just waiting to be discovered. I feel exceptionally priveleged that I have been able to invest in some of her original paintings for myself and in the future, for my children to enjoy and cherish.

I love this little place, called in just to browse and was not disappointed. I am not an art person so was worried about how I would be welcomed 😬 but the owners are very friendly and approachable. There are some lovely items for sale not just paintings. Definitely worth a visit, now going back to purchase a painting.
Big thank you for your welcome and for the advice.

We recently chose to explore this wonderful gallery in the heart of Llanelli to look for a graduation gift. The welcome and service we got was extremely warm and attentive and the gallery is a beautiful cove of colours and local scenes. Would highly recommend for gifts, personal artwork, but must of all for a lovely way to spend a morning!

We nipped in here on a dull day and are so glad we did. The pictures are vibrant and fascinating views of mainly local locations. Plus many other items and sculptures were on display. Our familly of four had been holidaying here for a week and had cycled and visited various places and so many were represented here. We all liked a gorgeous view of Burry Port so ended up taking this ray of sunshine home.

We are always glad to see new faces at the gallery and we are so pleased you enjoyed your visit. It was nice of you to take the time to leave the review. We really appreciate your comments. There are new originals from Denise that have been hung in the last week on a more 'imaginative' theme. Please call again soon
