About Me

My photo
Durham, NC
After graduating from the University of Mobile in 1985 I started a career as an artist. My life consisted of Easel painting, Murals, Trompe l'oeil and faux finishes. I did this for 18 years until reaching a point of creatively burning out. I painted nothing of substance for almost 7 years. In January of 2010 things happened to open my eyes to the beauty around me and a deep desire to paint again. This blog will be dedicated to my new work. Paintings that are for me and my pleasure and the pleasure of others and not for a pay check. My hope is that this will help to keep the work fresh and of true vision.

Frostbite Regatta 5 "Paradise Reach"


"Paradise Reach"
24 x 16
Acrylic on Board
Tony Alderman

The feeling I get when I look at a sail boat is that the thing is alive! The movement on the water and the wind in the sails constantly create a moving living sculpture.  No two moments are ever the same and the transient images leave me with a touch of anxiety for the next one.  It’s art in motion.
