The Cronin Vault

Welcome to the Cronin Vault. Some seasoned millennials like myself may recall the Disney vault. Many Disney classics were placed under lock and key for years, unavailable to be purchased by the masses. But on a rare and special occasion, Disney would release a treasured classic from the vault for a limited time. We all found it very exciting. Recently, I headed to my parents’ house to comb though a stack of painting relics some 20 years old, and I couldn't help but think of the Disney vault. I pulled a handful of these old classics, got them "show-ready" and shared them with the public for the Light of Day Art Fair. While the art fair has come and gone, I've decided to keep these pieces available at a discount through December 31st, 2026.

The work in this collection was created from 2006 - 2008 during my time studying at The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  Over the years, it has moved with me, and some of it has been in and out of many shows.  I've done my best to spruce everything up so that it is ready to present, but there are some pieces with a bit of wear from over the years, such as slight cracking from handling.  If you have questions about the condition of individual works, I'm happy to provide more details.  Any questions or inquiries? Please reach out to jennifercronininfo@gmail.com.

This is a rare opportunity to own a piece from my limited collection of early artwork that laid the foundation for my entire art career.  Sales from this fair will support me as I embark to create new work, enabling me to keep going, which is my number one goal as an artist.
