THE HISTORY OF CAMERON O'NEAL

Cameron O'Neal was born at age 70.

In an earlier incarnation he was Roger Moore, a real estate and financial executive, who transformed himself into "Mzungu", fine-art photographer and photo-safari guide who led photographic safaris throughout Africa, the Amazon, North, Central and South America - locations worldwide. He wore a bear claw necklace (fashioned, in the style of the Haida Indians, by a gypsy known as "The Mushroom Man") and a maple burl bracelet (crafted by a famous British woodturner in British Columbia). He carried a machete in his knee-high snake boots. Mzungu created incredibly beautiful black and white landscape photographs (View: ).

When his seventh decade dawned Roger said, "Forget black and white!" It's time for color. I shall become a watercolorist!. I am now "Cameron O'Neal!" So named in honor of his mother and his wife's mother, a respectful appropriation of their maiden names.

Cameron's artistic inspiration was a sculptor/painter named Jelly who lived in a yurt in a pecan orchard in Cowboy Country - tiny Roaring Springs, Texas (population 225) . Cameron and Jelly talked almost daily. Jelly packed egg sandwiches (with Mrs. Baird's white bread & Miracle Whip) and came to Cameron's studio in Dallas, Texas every few months, or Cameron trekked to the wilds West Texas to collaborate and create with Jelly and Tripod, Jelly's three legged Border Collie. This was a relationship developed over a lifetime ... Then Jelly died! Cameron was devastated and hung up his brushes. "My muse is Dead!". he mourned.

After three years, Cameron picked up his brushes again because he began to feel that Jelly would want him to do so. Now Cameron paints colorful and vibrant "lyrical landscapes" which come from images in his mind. Cameron now says: "Mother Nature is my new Muse."

Even now, Cameron still wears the bear-claw necklace and maple-burl bracelet in memory of the Past.
