Biography

I am a native of Chicago, Illinois’ west side and have been a resident of Atlanta, Georgia for 20 years.  I studied at the Atlanta College of Art and the American College of Art and work in oil, acrylics, pastels, watercolors, airbrush,clay sculpting and ceramics.  I have exhibited my art at LV Gallery, The National Black Arts Festival and I have been the poster artist for the MOJA festival in Charleston, South Carolina for the past three years. I have received awards from the Fulton County Art Program, the Fel-pro art Award,  and the Forest Park Township Art Award.  I find inspiration in my family roots.  One of my notable works, ”The Sunflower Sista” was inspired by an 92-year-old photograph of my grandmother standing in a field of sunflowers as a child.  In my work, I capture reflections of urban life and afro-centricity with a distinguished style and a broad range of images.  By exploring my creativity, I have developed a unique style of abstractions with tremendous depth and presence.  The ‘Art of Doyle’ is essentially a culmination style, grace, and soul.
