Hi Stephanie,
> 1) How do you make oxgall?
I'd recommend taking this question over to one of the
SCA-wide scribal lists. Both have a number of members
who have researched medieval scribal tools and
techniques and are pretty knowledgeable about a wide
range of scribal topics.
You can find subscription information for these lists
here:

You can also purchase oxgall:

> 2)Can you suggest some references for how paint was
> made in the 15th century?
Try Daniel V. Thompson's "Materials and Techniques and
Medieval Painting." It's readily available on Amazon,
and it's very inexpensive.
Regards,
Mistress Sara Penrose
