TESSA HENDERSON is an artist with three strings to her bow. The daughter of the architect
Bill Henderson, she studied at the Royal College of Art under Sir Hugh Casson. She
then became a house portraitist and for the last twenty-five years she has built
a reputation for herself by drawing portraits of buildings of all sorts
– from cottages
to castles.
Having been attracted by working in pastel when a student, Tessa started to work in it more seriously in the 1980s. She occasionally exhibits her pastel paintings – mostly landscapes – which she does when needing a change from drawing buildings.
