* John Frederick Lloyd Strevens (1902-1990)
was a British artist who exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and the Salon de Paris.
Strevens was born in London and studied at Heatherley's School of Fine Art, but was largely self-taught. He regularly used his wife and daughters as models for his paintings. In the 1960s, he became particularly well known for his oil paintings of children and flowers, and was a successful portrait painter. Many of his paintings of children and flowers were made into prints. Two of Strevens's paintings are in the collection of the British Council.
