Acrylic Paintings by Pat O’Neill

Pat O’Neill is a uniquely talented self-taught artist from Dora, Alabama who has lived in Bradenton, Florida since 2005. His medium of choice is acrylic paintings. He also specializes in custom wall murals.

Pat has exhibited in many juried art shows and galleries throughout the area and has been featured in numerous newspaper articles on Anna Maria Island. Pat draws his inspiration to paint from a wide variety of subjects — from the ocean and beach scenes to wildlife, people, and western scenes. In addition, he accepts commissions for fine art paintings. His vivid imagination and endless creativity help him bring his subjects to life on canvas.

Employed as a full-time security guard at the Ringling Museum in Sarasota, FL, Pat finds his job to be quite interesting — as well as inspirational to be among the beautiful art collections.
