Jeremy Henderson was born in Enniskillen County Fermanagh in 1952. He began his studies at the University of Ulster before moving to Kingston University London where he was awarded the first Stanley Picker fellowship 77-78. Later completing his Master of Arts at the Chelsea school of Art London.

Throughout his career his work has been   included in numerous exhibitions and solo shows. Exhibitions in the late 70s and early 80s include  "Stowells Trophy" at The Royal Academy London, The New Contemporaries ICA London,  Northern Young Contemporaries at The Whitworth Gallery Manchester.  The International connection "A sense of Ireland" at The Roundhouse London alongside Sean Scully, William Scott  Felin Egan and other Irish artists of the early 80s.

Exhibitions in the 1980s include "Paintings Across the border" a solo show at  Fenderesky Belfast, "Present Memories " a one  man show at The  Hendriks Gallery Dublin and Arts Council Belfast. Aiden Dunne Sunday Tribune  1987 wrote  " The titles relate the paintings to the artist's inner world. But the paintings  are singularly oblique messengers . He is a painter of considerable  talent  and some achievement ". John Hutchinson Director of the Douglas Hyde Gallery Trinity College Dublin in The Sunday Independent also wrote "  Jeremy Henderson makes full use of the art of quotations, his images deliberately evoke  the picturesque and romantic landscape conventions  that originated in the late eighteenth century( and had great  currency in Ireland ) as well as  the expressionist subjectivity of painters such as Jack  B Yeats .

Jeremy went on to have a considerable amount of solo shows in the 90s.  Painting from his studio in Brick Lane London and Fermanagh he made "The Hill of History" show which  was exhibited at the Atlantis Gallery London in 1994 and was awarded critics choice in the Sunday Independent. Iain Gale  wrote " Powerful landscapes, coruscating visions unmistakably Irish, they glow with colour  and are imbued  with the spirit  of his native land"

He returned to his home land in the late 1990s and painted from his studio in Fermanagh. Jeremy became ill with a brain tumour in 2007 but continued to paint up until his passing in 2009. He has left a great legacy to the art world.
