At La Grolla, we’re thrilled to showcase the captivating work of Seattle-based artist Michael Doyle, whose paintings are a blend of whimsy, nostalgia, and vivid storytelling. Doyle’s art is characterized by rich, saturated colours and smooth lines that beckon the viewer into a world of imaginative narratives.

Each piece in Doyle’s collection is thoughtfully framed to enhance the story it tells, inviting viewers to step into the narrative. The playful, whimsical, and compelling nature of these artworks strikes a balance between comfort and excitement. They are reminiscent of classical art yet innovative, creating a sense of bright cheerfulness that becomes the centrepiece of any room.

Depth and Dimensionality

Timeless Stills uses the canvas board as a nod to classical still life and portrait painting, adding depth and dimensionality to each piece. Particularly notable are the ‘Mystical Cape’ pieces, where subjects bear expressions akin to the Mona Lisa, sparking curiosity about the deeper story.

Art as Connection

Michael Doyle speaks of art as his connection to the world, a way to overcome reclusiveness and find purpose. His paintings, often featuring elements from his local surroundings and community, are his way of interacting with the world.

Inspiration from Literature

An avid reader, Doyle draws inspiration from his favourite authors, which is evident in the frequent depiction of books in his works. This literary influence adds another layer of nostalgia and wonder to his creations.

 

A World of Wonder and Nostalgia

Each artwork by Doyle is an invitation to a world of wonder and nostalgia. Whether placed in a cozy corner or as the focal point of a room, these pieces resonate with their surroundings, bringing warmth and intrigue.

Art By Design

Michael Doyle stands out as a transformative element, bringing a unique blend of nostalgia, whimsy, and vivid colour to any space. His works are ideal for spaces that aim to evoke comfort and curiosity, making them perfect for both residential and commercial settings.

In a home, a Doyle painting could be the centrepiece of a living room, where its rich colours and playful themes spark conversation and reflection. In a commercial space like a boutique hotel or a trendy cafe, his art could add a touch of sophistication and playfulness, creating an inviting and memorable atmosphere for guests.

Doyle’s pieces, with their classic frames and deep narratives, also fit seamlessly into more traditional or vintage-themed spaces, adding a modern twist to classic decor.
