Paintings, Drawings and 3D Mixed Media.
Artist Statement
I believe Artists are mystics that pass information from one generation to another. As an artist I try to focus on the aspects of every day life that could become spectacular events in the future. I don’t favor any particular medium. I let the subject determine the medium best suited to tell the story. With each creation I attempt to tell a story about a place, a time or situation.
In the 80’s I studied and strived to perfect painting. By the early 90’s I discovered that to evolve I had to create more three- dimensionally. I could no longer be limited to a single medium. This in turn unlocked the world of mixed-media and broke the shackles of tradition, leaving only creative discipline.
At this point in life, I feel competent to attempt anything artistic. I have learned the greatest mistake is not nearly as bad as not trying.
Resume / Bio
Lloyd DeBerry began exhibiting a natural talent for art at an early age. As a child he developed his artistic talents with the aid of text books, mail order courses and studying anatomy from an encyclopedia. After high school DeBerry joined the US Army and enrolled in a number of correspondence courses while stationed in Japan and Korea. This was a period that spawned DeBerry's love of human observation. The bustling streets and market places of the Far East were full of sights and scenes that played an important part in his development and appreciation for the human condition.
