Inspired by nature and universal themes and concepts‚ John Louis Lloyd’s paintings sneak up on you and appeal to the curious within the viewer. Upon first sight they seem totally abstract until a feature then appears to the viewer‚ irreversibly leading one into a mysterious world that indeed can have some essence of the familiar but overall seems to have an other-worldly feel about it. Rich textures‚ layers of marks‚sprays, collaged skins, stains‚ glazes and flows make for enticing‚ visually engaging organic surfaces.
One of the artists in residence at the studios of the Port Art collective in Port Melbourne, John Louis Lloyd has exhibited and sold for some years and his works grace the walls of several private homes and corporate entities in Australia , US, Brazil and Europe.
