Lloyd Dobson Artist 20

My name is Lloyd Dobson an artist living in the Siesta Key – Sarasota Florida area. I was born in Kansas City, Missouri and raised in Independence, Missouri. I studied art in high school and college where I was blessed to win numerous art awards and ribbons. In Missouri I studied under the late artist Andrew Thoman. After a year in college I migrated to Southern California.

After a couple of years living in California, I partnered with three other artist and opened a gallery in Laguna Beach, California. That same year opened an additional gallery and studio in Canoga Park, California where I taught oil painting as well.

In 2007 I moved to Treasure Island, Florida where Florida’s west coast now seem to influence my paintings. In 2013 I moved to the Siesta Key – Sarasota area and close to my son, daughter-in-law and granddaughters and they have invigorated me to continue capturing God’s palette.

You can find me and my paintings every Sunday from 8am to 2pm at the Siesta Key Market
