Graveyard — The last painting

This is the last painting Arthur Lloy painted. The oil was still wet on the board the day he passed away. This is the only grave yard scene he has ever painted and oddly, he signed his name in an unusual place. For any Arthur Lloy you come across, his signature will always be either in the bottom left or bottom right hand side of his painting.

This painting , I believe, is an adaptation of a picture which Arthur Lloy had come across and then used it as the inspiration for this painting.

Sadly, it was to be his last. The subject matter and especially the way he decided to sign his name on the grave stone has always made me think that maybe his sub-conscience new something that his conscience mind did not.

He was a brilliant artist who has left us a mere glimpse into his vision and these are a few examples of his artistry and talent.
