Michael Doyle, still life

Michael Doyle, still life, interiors and landscape

Michael Doyle is a painter based in the Delaware Valley area who paints figures, still life, landscapes and interiors. His landscapes and interiors often incorporate still life elements, handled with a rough edged, painterly style suited to their often rustic feel.

Doyle frequently employs backgrounds that are textural combinations of multiple muted colors, giving them energy and a feeling of changing light.

Michael Doyle’s work will be on display in a show at the Somerville Manning Gallery in Wilmington Delaware, beginning tonight, October 19 and running to November 10, 2018.

  1. Please, is this prior information about the same Michael Doyle? ‘Ultimate up-to-date’ sounds good.

    The Third Edition of Michael Doyle’s classic Color Drawing remains the ultimate up-to-date resource for professionals and students who need to develop and communicate design ideas with clear, attractive, impressive color drawings.

    1. No. This is a different artist. The book looks good if what you want is specifically architectural drawing in the formal sense of presenting architectural projects to clients. However, if you’re more interested in sketching architecture, you would probably be happier with books on urban sketching.
