ARTIST
Joe Lloyd (1937-2011) was an Ontario-based sculptor and woodcarver. He was born near Napanee, Ontario and eventually settled in Brantford where he began carving seriously in the 1970s. Lloyd's subject matter evolved from wildlife carving of fish, bear, and birds, into human figures, which he then began to place in small, intricately detailed scenes. Typical subjects of Joe’s sculptures are sports figures, cowboys, super heroes, soldiers, and domestic scenes. He worked in small scale and with great detail.
