A conversation on what painting reveals when you refuse to look away.

Join us for an artist talk with Berkshires-based painter Charles Thomas O'Neil, in conversation around his solo exhibition Truthful Search — a full-space takeover at (Creative Legion).

In this body of work, O'Neil explores accumulation and erasure, tension and restraint. Through layered mark-making and deliberate subtraction, his paintings reveal the evidence of process: gestures reconsidered, surfaces revised, forms that emerge through persistence and doubt.

Free and open to the public.  RSVP required.
