Seth and I recently visited the studio of one of this year's new Form Over Function artists, Michael Doyle🎨✨

Michael is a self-taught, Seattle-based painter and illustrator who's been at it for twenty years, painting figures inspired by classic cinema, old books, and Pacific Northwest textures in acrylic gouache. He calls his style a "wink and nod" to something slower and more human.

Michael's studio in Seattle’s Denny Park neighborhood was a treat to visit and peek into his creative world.

So excited to welcome his work to the gallery this fall.

📅 Opening Night: October 17

The sixth artist joining this year's Form Over Function is Michael Doyle 🤗

Michael Doyle is a self-taught painter and illustrator born and based in Seattle. Twenty years ago, he hung his first paintings at a neighborhood art walk and hasn't stopped since, building a practice that's grown from coffee shops and bookstores to galleries and international collectors, all without formal training- just a deep commitment to making.

Working in acrylic gouache, Michael creates figurative paintings that draw from classic cinema, old books, and the textures of Pacific Northwest life. His work carries a wry warmth and quiet sense of mystery- what he calls a "wink and nod" to something nostalgic, slower, and a little more human. His studio sits right here in Seattle's Denny Park neighborhood.

We can't wait to share his work with you this fall.

Some of the best spaces are built around a story.

For this project, Leigh Chu selected custom artwork by Michael Doyle, an artist whose work blends nostalgia, curiosity, and quiet storytelling into every piece. Self-taught and inspired by classic films, memoirs, and walks through the Pacific Northwest, Michael creates artwork that doesn’t just fill a wall. It gives a room a soul.

That’s what I love about working with Grand Image. We don’t just source art. We help designers find pieces that feel intentional, personal, and impossible to replace.

Every project deserves artwork with a story worth telling.

Every season is card + letter season, but taking the time to keep in touch during the insanity of summer feels extra special 💖

The card wall is STOCKED and we’ve got loads of special box sets and other one-of-a-kind ways to stay in touch with those you love 🥰

A WEEK OF FUN & FUNK. Tramp Art frames have long been an obsession of mine. I saw this post on the @framezillapgh page a while ago and was really impressed by the frame & art combination. As it turns out, the gang at Framezilla (seriously one of my all-time fave frame shop names!) specializes in pairing vintage frames with client art. Case in point, this @michaeldoylestudio print is perfectly at home in this antique folk art frame. I couldn’t have done better myself! Kudos.

It was Anna’s birthday so she got a few pics then she celebrated!! 🎈Big thanks to @sarahbrunnermusic for playing for us on the patio and congrats on the release on her new single “Miss Kentucky” 👏🏻🌈 We loved seeing our community and friends out and about! See you on THURSDAY, July 2nd for the next Art Walk before the Street Dance and the Grand Old Fourth! 🇺🇸

Does anyone layer colour and pattern with quite the same joy as Laura Stephens? Every room feels collected over a lifetime, but somehow still completely fresh. Here rooms are as warm and joyful as the designer herself.

Check out this remarkable collection. For more inspiration, other iconic brands shown here are from @farrowandball @gpjbaker @strawlondon @teilart @madedotcom @arumfellow @watts1874 @thepureedit
