Lloyd Giles

Somewhere amidst Lloyd’s career as a pilot for Trans World Airlines and his vacations to the North Woods of Wisconsin, he graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. While he has worked in many art mediums, today he works predominately in oil. Lloyd’s artwork reflects his varied interests in wildlife, landscape, aviation and astronomy.

Now a retired pilot, avid astronomer and year-round resident of Boulder Junction, Wisconsin, Lloyd photographs the earth and sky, and paints in his studio amidst the birch and pines of his home on Little Crooked Lake.

Lloyd accepts commission work and many of his paintings now hang in private collections. His work has been exhibited at the Pine Tree Gallery in Ironwood, Michigan, Moondeer & Friends Gallery in Boulder Junction, Wisconsin, and Parkside Gallery in Minocqua, Wisconsin, as well as other galleries as far away as Michigan, New Jersey, and California. Some of Lloyd’s works have been accepted into and won awards in juried shows.

Lloyd is married to Judy Giles, a long-time library volunteer and is father to four successful children, and grandfather of seven active grandchildren.
