Bio

“To Paint is to Love Again” -Henry Miller

JOE O’NEILL

 

I am a Los Angeles based painter. I have many influences and interests so I typically work in a number of styles at once (thought not necessarily all on the same painting). I combine various materials and disparate concepts to transcend traditional boundaries of painting.
