John Carroll Doyle was born in Charleston, SC and is internationally recognized for his energetic, light filled paintings of subjects as diverse as blues musicians, blue marlins, and blue hydrangeas. Sadly Mr. Doyle left this earth on November 12, 2014 at the young age of 71.The artist got his start with his distinctive sport fishing paintings which began to grace the covers of many popular sport fishing magazines in the 1980s. He continued to build momentum throughout the 1980s and the 1990s with his now famous, commissioned, large scale paintings that can be seen gracing the walls of many of Charleston restaurants and historic homes, as well as clubs, resorts, and restaurants as far afield as Illinois, California, Virginia, and Australia. Over the course of his four decade long career, John became a seasoned, American Impressionist whose muse was always Charleston and the surrounding Lowcountry. From wildlife to still life, John Doyle painted with a passion and understanding that makes it hard to believe he was self-taught. Doyle claimed as his "teachers" the wooden boats at the Charleston Yacht Basin, lavender shadows on Charleston stucco, and the coastal sunlight that floods this city year-round.
