Elephant Saxophone drawingJohn L. Doyle American 1939
drawing 22" x33" Doyle is an artist steeped in ethnology and anthropology. This drawing dates from 1972 when he was teaching art in an Illinois high school. We've met several students who recall him with incredible enthusiasm. "He'd do these drawings on his lunch hour and hang them up around the room. They were wild," said one student who is now in advertising art. We think this may be a psychic of a Bill Clinton nightmare, a Republican icon out-jazzing him. We have another of a donkey head atop a huge screw. We've sold several, but have a number of his drawings left from his Mechanical Botanical Series, unframed available at very reasonable prices, all this large format, most in colored pencil. He left teaching and has had a very successful career. He has had over fifty one man national exhibitions. He has also had the pleasure to participate in more than thirty national and international group exhibitions and has been the recipient of more than thirty two awards. He is listed in Who Was Who in American Art.. Check our graphics for two from his 1964 Sharpshooter's series.
