I would like to hear from anyone who purchased a D'Arcy Doyle or Ramon Ward-Thompson painting at an Exhibition and Sale of Australian art at Jupiters Casino at Broadbeach on the Gold Coast in January 2008.
If you purchased any work of art at this sale please
email me
I would also like to hear from Jennifer or Jennefer Doyle who purportedly provided the paintings for this sale.
d'Arcy W. Doyle was born in Ipswich in 1932 and was a self-taught painter of Australian landscapes and historical scenes.
From an early age he had a keen interest in drawing and wished to be a designer or to be involved in the graphic industry.
He joined the Royal Australian Navy and served seven years, after which he took up full-time painting in 1961.
Doyle has a deep affinity with the Australian bush and his work focuses on horses, sheep, drovers and other farm activities as well as children's games.
Influenced by Norman Rockwell, the well-known American illustrator, Doyle gives us a nostalgic impression of post-war Brisbane and Ipswich as he recalls it.
