Wilf Tilley (Dr. Michael W. Miller) was educated in local schools and began his career as an actor, age 16, with the National Youth Theatre. “Wilf Tilley” was part-adopted for a first, solo exhibition at the AIR Gallery,
The sitter for this portrait was in the third trimester of pregnancy and gave birth to a boy shortly after the sitting. However, she is the sister of Satomi who was the model for a small portrait painting I exhibited in the last New Light Exhibition.
