Carroll has had a lifelong interest in the arts. He attended the Omaha Art School. For the most part, his style is self-taught. He attends many of the major fine arts and wildlife shows throughout the Midwest.
Carroll is represented in galleries and his works are in both private and corporate collections.
"The softness of a feather, the strength of an eagle's claw, the aggressiveness of an animal protecting its territory, or the passiveness of a songbird as it pauses to rest upon a branch. This is what I try to convey in my works. Color, fur or feather patterns and habitat should be accurate, but a successful painting is one the viewer can enter and experience. In order to do this a painting needs depth, a sense of mystery, space which is proper positioning of the bird or animal, and the flow of the background. A painting is not only a moment frozen in time but an anticipation of what is going to happen. The artist creates according to their own interpretation."
