Biography

Lloyd was born at Laugharne in Carmarthenshire in west Wales and lived in the area throughout her life, with the local landscape being the regular subject of her paintings.[1][2] Lloyd was largely self-taught as an artist although she did study sewing and fabric work part-time at the Carmarthen College of Art for a period.[2] She mostly exhibited her paintings in Women's Institute, WI, exhibitions both regionally in Carmarthenshire and Pembrokeshire but also nationally, winning a WI Gold Medal on at least one occasion.[2] Her work also featured in the 1972 Welsh Arts Council touring exhibition, An Alternative Tradition.[2][1]
