About Meredith Oneal:
Meredith O'Neal is a Texas native who specializes in paintings depicting wildlife and the natural world. Though interested in art from a very young age, Meredith didn't take her first painting class until her freshman year of college at Texas State University. She received her undergraduate degree in both Painting and Photography a few years later. She then moved to California and received a masters degree in painting at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2012. Meredith has since moved back to Texas where she now lives and works near Houston as a full time artist with her husband and two young children. She enjoys traveling and spending most weekends on her family's ranch property in Huntsville, Texas. It is there that she finds a lot of her artistic inspiration and is often exploring the grounds in search of wildlife and collecting natural treasures such as feathers, cow bones, and plants for observation.
