JOHN C. DOYLE ART GALLERY

John C. Dolye Art Gallery has seen many positive changes since artist John C. Doyle passed away in 2014. It was Doyle’s wish for the gallery to continue as his namesake gallery celebrating realism and impressionism. Gallery director Angela Stump feels that Doyle would be thrilled with the addition of several prolific artists over the last few years. As one of the oldest operating Lowcountry galleries in Charleston, the gallery currently represents the works of seven award-winning artists. The Charleston art market continues to expand, as traditional and contemporary galleries are opening all over the historic peninsula.
“I’m seeing art collectors from around the country that know they are in a very special art destination. I think the secret is finally out, that we are more than history, great food, and unforgettable views; we are a place to buy fine art,” says Stump.
The gallery’s newest addition to its stable of artists is internationally renowned seascape painter Simon Kenevan. A special opening reception with Kenevan in attendance will be held on October 4 from 5 to 8 p.m., showcasing his epic seascapes and serene marsh oils that reflect Southern coastal charm. The gallery is proud to offer oils, watercolors, monotypes, photography, bronze and high-quality giclée reproductions.
