Oil Painting

Oil painting with Barbara Henderson stressing color, composition, and perspective.

I began oil painting when I was about 20 years old.  I was fortunate to have five years of weekly private lessons with a self supporting artist. He called his style of painting ‘realistic impressionism.  Through his skill and understanding of the basics of oil painting, I was able to gain a skill that has brought me satisfaction for many years.  I hope to pass what I have learned on to you, while stimulating you to paint in a way that brings out your own artistic abilities.        Barbara Henderson

Getting started with oil painting requires an initial investment in paint, brushes, and supplies.  However, both paint and brushes will last a long time if properly stored and cared for.
