Biography -
David Charles Lloyd |
|
David Lloyd was born in Toronto, Ontario in 1953. He graduated from the Ontario College of Art in 1977. He studied for his third year in Florence, Italy under the instruction of Franklin Arbuckle. He worked for about 10 years in Toronto as a freelance illustrator, and painter. |
|
In 1986 he obtained a BFA from the University of Guelph, and a few years later a Bed from the University of Western Ontario. He taught art in several schools in the Brampton area, and now resides in Barrie, Ontario where he supply teaches and continues his painting. |

David has painted for over thirty years and has accumulated a very large body of work that includes hundreds of oil paintings, collages, drawings, and journals. |

The art of
David Lloyd has developed and matured over
thirty or more years. Imagination and
fantasy have continued to be a hallmark of
his work.
His recent paintings reflect a fascination
with the mysterious origins of design and
creative inspiration by employing an
imaginative interplay of colour, shapes, and
textures over carefully prepared fields of
muted colour. A perceived analogy to song
and dance would be correct. In fact the
artist likens his paintings to changed
poems, more evident even in his many
collages.
His years as a teacher exposed him to the
art of children which in his humble opinion
is the greatest art in the world. |
