TONY ALDRICH
Tony is a painter who sits within the tradition of British abstract landscape painting, he is also an architect and an educator.  Born in Lancashire but was brought up in the South West to which he returned following periods of working as an architect in London, Cambridge and Bath.  In 2002 he and his family returned to Plymouth take up a lectureship at the University of Plymouth.



“I share the view that painting is a meditation upon existence, and that this activity is spiritual as much as intellectual.  I think that the role of painting is to reveal this and other truths.  My work therefore engages with these ideas through its considerations of perception, meaning, and the immanence of being.”
