" I Dream in Colour"
 Trudi Doyle Art Exhibition at the Clubhouse Kilkenny - 8th to 17th August

           From Kilkenny to Minnesota
As I prepare for my 29th annual exhibition in Kilkenny arts festival this year I remember  that this time last year I was trying to decide if it was worthwhile to continue to exhibit during a recession .
 It was a dilemma but  I went ahead as usuall to the venue in "mid town " Kilkenny  I've been exhibiting at for twenty years - Gallery Upstairs at the Club House Hotel . !
As it happened that exhibition last year was quite successful but the most interesting development for me soon after was a request via my website from Gustavus Adolphus University, Minnesota to purchase temporary copyright for their print literature of some art pieces which had been shown in my Kilkenny Exhibition , in particular "Peaceable Kingdom" watercolour which I'd sold to a private collector from Kilkenny
Detail "Peacable Kingdom " watercolour  

I'm amazed at the far reaching power of the internet ! My website on Fine Art America where Gustavus Adolphus University found my work and loved it,  is home to 100,000+ of the world's greatest living artists and photographers with a collection of 7,224,229 images so I feel very proud and lucky that my work was chosen . See detail from one of their choices " Peaceable Kingdom"

This year my exhibition " I Dream in Colour" has a variety of my work in Watercolours, Acrylics and Pastels including a section with a mythological theme.( see "Transmigration" attached  )
