A revered teacher, he taught privately for over 50 years.Before starting his own classes, he studied with Hans Hofmann in Provincetownfrom 1949 to 1952. In 1950 he made a film of Hofmann creating his painting The Window; the film later debuted atthe Metropolitan Museum of Art. Feinstein helped Hofmann compose his personalessays, reviewed Hofmann's shows in leading art magazines, and wrote acatalogue essay for a 1953 exhibit of Hofmann's landscapes.
