After serving in the RAF in WWII, Alec Ernest Wiles followed his passion as an artist and sculptor. He worked in most media, specialising in portraiture and the female form. Alec's life was recording the world, whatever he saw he would sketch or paint. He drew tourists on Newquay pier and painted directors of public companies in board rooms, town councillors, fishing boats and flowers. Alec exhibited at The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1977.
