Lloyd Tronco
Artist. Advertising Guy. Abstractionist. Artist of the Philippines' largest abstract painting.
Lloyd’s lifelong dream has always been to become an architect. Unfortunately, his father died while Lloyd was in his first semester at the University of the Philippines in Diliman. As a result, Lloyd felt the need to go back to Bacolod to help his mother run Tronco Advertising Co. and subsequently enrolled at La Consolacion College, where he shifted to fine arts.
“I had decided to become an architect rather than an artist because I felt that my dad was so big, and I recognized then that I could not fill those shoes,” Tronco says. “The turn to art happened when he passed away… the architecture dream had to be abandoned due to necessity.”
