Inspired by nature as many abstract art works are‚ 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‚ irreversably 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 dribbles‚sprays, collaged skins, stains‚ glazes and marks make for enticing‚ visually engaging organic surfaces.
One of the artists in residence at the studios of Port Art facility 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 and Europe.
