Mary-Leigh Doyle
Artist
Instructor
.......................................................................................................................................
Mary-Leigh is a Calgary Alberta artist and instructor who once considered herself an
artistic jack-of-all-trades dabbling in any artistic medium she could get her hands on
for years. After raising her children she focused her attention on developing more
refined skills in only a select few areas and media. Watercolor rapidly became her
primary medium but the first time she painted in oil she was smitten. Today she likes
to present the everyday people and subjects she encounters in such a way as to
convey the beauty she sees even in the simplest things. From rusty found objects to
sun drenched flowers Mary-Leigh feels she need look no further than her every day
life to find a worthy subject. Her children and garden provide her with her favourite
subjects.
She attended school in Ontario where she was fortunate enough to enroll in and
graduate from a fine arts high school and then continued on to study at the Ontario
College of Art and Design. Her pursuit of all things artistc over the years lead to
studies at Mount Royal College, S.A.I.T, Swinton’s, The Wildflower Arts and Crafts
Centre and just about anywhere else she could find a program of interest. These
included drawing, fashion design, sculpture, printmaking and ultimately painting.
Portraits and still life are her passion. However the call of the wild jack-of-all-trades
still reaches her and now and then she will dabble in some printmaking, mosaic or
textile arts.
