Lloyd provided art to several large advertising clients in the 1960s, including National Geographic and the National Football League. He also illustrated for magazines such as Playboy and Esquire.

Lloyd has since worked with many other motion picture clients such as Paramount Pictures, often as a conceptual or storyboard artist.
In 1993, Lloyd joined Santa Barbara Studios as an art director for the 1995 film 500 Nations, and later worked extensively with the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum on the 1996 IMAX documentary Cosmic Voyage.
Lloyd has won several awards, including the New York Society of Illustrators Gold Medal Award.
