1. Art Workshop or Painting Class: Give her the opportunity to enhance her skillset and explore new techniques by enrolling her in an oil painting workshop or class. Look for classes offered by renowned artists or art institutions to ensure she receives the best guidance and inspiration.

2. High-Quality Oil Paint Set: Surprise her with a top-quality oil paint set composed of professional-grade pigments, brushes of different sizes and shapes, palettes, and other necessary accessories. This will not only encourage her artistic endeavors but also show your support for her passion.

3. Customized Artist Apron: Consider gifting her a personalized artist apron that is designed specifically for oil painting. You can have her name or a special message embroidered on it, making her feel appreciated and acknowledged whenever she puts it on.

4. Inspiring Art Books or Magazines: Explore the world of art literature and choose a few art books or magazines centered around oil painting. Look for titles that showcase the works and techniques of her favorite artists, as well as offer guidance, inspiration, and lessons from professionals in the field.

5. Landscape Photography Trip: Take her on a weekend getaway to a picturesque location known for its stunning landscapes. This will provide her with the opportunity to gather reference photos to work on future paintings. The experience of visiting a new place together will also create lasting memories.

6. Custom-Made Artist Palette: Surprise her with a unique, custom-made artist palette. You can consider having a local artisan create a palette from a special wood or have it personalized with an engraved message. This thoughtful gift will not only be a practical tool but also a sentimental keepsake.

7. Art Studio Makeover: If she has a dedicated space for painting, consider renovating or enhancing her art studio. You can gift her new easels, storage organizers, additional lighting, or even a comfortable chair. Organize the space in a way that facilitates her creative process and makes it more enjoyable for her to spend time there.

8. Commissioned Artwork: Connect with a talented local artist who specializes in oil painting and commission a custom artwork specifically designed for your wife. Provide the artist with information about her favorite subjects, colors, or styles to ensure the artwork reflects her taste and preferences.

Remember to accompany your gift with a heartfelt card expressing your love and admiration for her artistic talent and the joy it brings to your life.

Or you can get her a star map with the date of your anniversary.
