Primacy of Movement & Works from the Rose Art Museum 'Painting4'. O'Neal challenges the notion that paintings are discrete entities, confined to their places on walls. By using mirrorized paint (invented by the artist) each viewer has a unique and very personal experience.

Electrocution drawings: Using a pen connected to a voltage box, as O'Neal scribes the circuit is completed and a small hole is burned in the paper. Each hole represents the artist's literal connection to his work, physically feeling each mark placed.
O'Neal's subject matter- whether figurative, allegorical, abstract or symbolic - combined with his choice of materials, conjures magical & challenging realities, questioning our idea of what painting and drawing is & all of what it could be.
