About the artist

Hello, I’m Naomi.

Portrait of Naomi, oil painter and founder of The Oil Painter's Studio

A painter’s studio should be a place of curiosity, not intimidation.

I’m an oil painter and the creator of The Oil Painter’s Studio. I built this space to share practical guidance and painter-made tools that make difficult decisions, especially color mixing and composition, feel clearer.

My approach is grounded in patient observation, useful reference, and the kind of learning that happens one painting at a time. You do not need perfect materials or perfect confidence to begin. You need a place to start, a way to see what is happening, and permission to keep experimenting.
