American Impressionist, John Carroll Doyle (1942-2014)
Prolific American Impressionist, John Carroll Doyle (1942-2014), was a self-taught painter whose muse was his beloved home town of Charleston, South Carolina, and the beautiful surrounding Lowcountry. His work ranges from Lowcountry scenes, still life, and portaiture, to Charleston architecture, sport fishing, landscapes, blues musicians, and Charleston street vendors from his childhood memories. In the summer of 2008 Doyle moved his gallery from the renowned 54 Broad Street location to 125 Church Street where the gallery also features work by fellow Charleston native, Margaret Petterson. It was Johns' wish after his passing to have the gallery continue in his name, and we are honored. We have many original works available by Mr. Doyle in oils and photography, as well as over 200 high quality canvas reproductions of sold works. We also offer Margaret Petterson's vibrant oils and mixed media monotypes, the award winning oils of Anna Rose Bain, and the unique bronze sculptures by internationally renowned Geoffrey Smith. Please come visit the gallery and see all of these amazing work in person!

Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Over 35 years
What is your primary product or service?
We sell fine art by two of Charleston's most renowned native artists, John Carroll Doyle and Margaret Petterson. We offer original oils, original mixed media monotypes, original photography, as well as many lithographs and high quality textured giclees on canvas.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
John Doyle began his art career as a child sketching on church programs! He was a self-taught painter that learned for decades from countless Impressionists through his career, especially John Singer Sargent and William Merritt Chase. Margaret began painting in the 1970's and opened one of the first fine art galleries in Charleston in 1993!
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
The two artists we represent reflect the Lowcountry, and they all tell beautiful stories of Charleston and the surrounding area through their art work. Whether a still life of a blooming hydrangea, a Gullah vendor circa 1940, or a beautiful beach scene - our gallery offers collectors an authentic memory of Charleston that they can carry home with them and enjoy for many years to come.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Since John Doyle's passing in November 2014, we are honoring his wish to keep the gallery moving forward in his name. We only have one gallery - at 125 Church Street, in the historic French Quarter district of the peninsula, and hope to be here for a very long time!
