He came to America in 1972 and lived in San Francisco until he accepted a tenure as the artist-in-residence for The Southern Arizona Light Opera Company where he worked in close collaboration with the original set designers of “The Wizard of Oz” and “My Fair Lady.” As head of a select team of artists he created numerous stage sets for Theaters around the country and for eight years, between seasons, he designed “Haunted Mansions” for charitable organizations in Scottsdale, Las Vegas and Atlanta.
Lloyd draws upon his experiences in the theatre to create original artwork with an authenticy strongly influenced by his romantic exposure to other cultures. His painting style is immediately recognizable and his work adorns the walls of many prestigious homes and private collections around the world and several of his large original oil paintings are on permanent display at the Desert Rose Institute in Eloy Arizona. He has written and illustrated three books on Persian history which have been published in English and translated into Farsi.
